We are excited to announce that we are in the final development of a new and upgraded
website that will be taking the place of this website. Due to this, we are no longer adding new members to this site.
The new website
www.buylocalks.com will be
launched in October 2009. We would like to invite you to visit us there to see how the new site it is shaping up and
to join upon its launch.

Wagon Wheel Orchard

Products: TBD - possibly specialty fruit - we have over 200 different heirloom apples, peaches, pears and cherries - many of which are for culinary use only
Pest and Disease Management: IPM very low spray and only on the varieties that need it and when they need it
Soil and Nutrient Management: We fertilize young trees with composted horse manure and some 15-15-15 general lawn fertilizer
Water Usage Practices: We irrigate our young trees with a drip line system from our rain-filled pond.
Conservation/Land Stewardship Practices: We've planted black cherry and mulberries trees to keep birds from our fruit crops
Additional Information: We have a focus on historical Kansas apples. The average grocery store has a handful of choices - we have hundreds.
Organic Products: We are not certified organic although we do have many no spray trees
