We are excited to announce our first book publication titled 'Espalier Fruit Plantings in Northern Gardens: Creating Fruit Trees as Art' written by Dr. Ron Perry and Dr. Kristin Getter. It is available on Amazon's Kindle store for $9.99. ALL proceeds go directly to support our Gardens. We thank Dr. Ron Perry for using his extensive fruit tree experience to write this book and his willingness to allow all proceeds to go directly to the Gardens.
