This is rather early in the season, but I thought I could start the hunt now! I'm currently renting a house with three very productive apple trees and will have scads of good eating/baking apples in the fall.
I would love to trade some apples for some rhubarb. If you have rhubarb you'd be willing to trade send me an email at meredith.funston@gmail.com or phone me at 531-0339.
Or if you have anything else you'd like to trade for some great apples, I'm open to ideas!

luckily for fernie.... rhubarb grows a plenty in this valley. i'm amazed, watching as the leaves start to form SO early in the season. As of today, April 18th, the leaves are already palm sized. I'd be glad to share our patch with you. Rhubarb freezes SO well, and goes SO well with strawberries.
