What an incredible time of the year it is in Northern Kentucky with Spring finally arriving, and I was fortunate enough to attend one of the first classes of the new season sponsored by the Boone County Arboretum entitled, “Who’s Your Pawpaw?”. This class proved to be more than just have a catchy title.
Sheri Crabapple of Kentucky State University Community Research Service was quite knowledgeable about pawpaw.
Ron Powell of Fox Paw Ridge Farm and president of North American Pawpaw Growers Association was available to share his knowledge and expertise with those in the class. This pawpaw duo guided the class every step of the way through the process of bud grafting pawpaw. By the end of the class I was feeling pretty good about the work i had completed and can’t wait to see the results of my work.
Oh, did I mention that at the end of the class you walk away with your Pawpaw trees you just finished grafting.
If you would like more info please contact Ron Powell, this is his business card.
