Plants

WHNO specializes in the growing and selling of heirloom variety and cold-hardy apple trees, other fruit trees and plants. We encourage our customers to try unusual varieties and help promote preservation of heirloom fruits. Biodiversity makes for a better, more resilient ecosystem in your yard or orchard. With patience and care these plants are long-lived (many can survive for centuries) and your labor will be a gift to future generations.

With 30 years of experience and research, we have a great understanding of all aspects of fruit growing in a northern climate. While we focus on plant varieties that thrive in northern climates, most of our plants will also grow well in warmer regions.

All plants are certified organic by VOF.

"Acts of creation are ordinarily reserved for gods and poets.  To plant a tree, one need only own a shovel."                         ~Aldo Leopold
