The Best Time To Plant A Tree.....
Aug 2015 Pawpaw

I have said it many times before, the best time to plant a tree was 25 years ago and the second best time is today... The other day, my husband, my father in law and our grandson decided it was time to plant the native Pawpaws that we got from my step father, Joe Festerling, owner of Lindenhof Nurseries.
 I am not sure Aaron really understands just how special the Pawpaw trees are, but I hope as he grows older he will remember that very special day he spent with two of his biggest fans, his grandfather and great-grandfather...
