@IntractableLion Was just in the USDA's quince repository a couple of days ago, collecting samples. We've been tracking the collection in field and kitchen, for a few years, now. You growing yourself or harvesting from elsewhere? ars.usda.gov/ARSUserFiles/20721500/catalogs/cydfruit.html

Quoted byRT @nick_routledge: @cognazor You might check in with @AgrarianSharing's WA-based Chris Homanics. A treasure chest of tree-crop knowhow, he's our core pillar within the PNW agrobiodiversity movement, knows everybody worth knowing, and sells seed from his own nursery. ASN also cuts scion, of course. #OTD2015Quoted by@cognazor You might check in with @AgrarianSharing's WA-based Chris Homanics.
