Author Description

Excerpt from Harrison's Nurseries, 1918 The quality of Harrison-grown trees is our main pride and the big reason for our marvelous expansion. We grow each and every fruit tree that leaves our packing sheds, and only the very best are allowed to go. Any tree that is not just right is thrown on the brush-pile and burned, as it would not be Harrison policy to allow inferior stock to go to our friends. If you stand in our nurseries and see the blocks of growing trees, you would have to look nearly a mile to see the end of the clean, well-kept rows. Millions of Peach, Apple, and other trees take up considerable space. As far as the eye can really distinguish an object you see nothing but the t0ps of little trees.
