The Home Orchard Education Center (HOEC) and orchard will open its doors for a private tour with guest speakers on Sunday, Sept. 10, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. HOEC is located southeast of Portland in Oregon City, OR.<\/p>\n

Tonia Lordy, HOEC\u2019s Executive Director, will give a talk about what it takes to establish a small-scale, mixed-species orchard and give a private tour. Tonia will be joined by Joseph Postman, who recently retired from the USDA National Clonal Germplasm Repository in Corvallis, OR.<\/p>\n

Joseph is an avid home fruit grower and will share some of the interesting work he did at Corvallis including red-fleshed pear development, Japanese Quince cultivars, multi-species grafting, and much more. We\u2019ll also hear from NAFEX Director Chris Homanics on fruit tree crops.<\/p>\n

Enjoy a BYO brown bag picnic lunch where we can exchange ideas with other fruit growers in the PNW region. Plan to bring your lunch (in a cooler, as needed) and a lawn chair. Dress for the outdoors.<\/p>\n

Space will be limited to 30 people. The cost is $15 for members of the North American Fruit Explorers (NAFEX) and $25 for general admission. All proceeds from this event will go directly to HOEC.<\/p>\n
