What does everybody have ordered in the way of fruit trees - apples, crabs, pears, persimmons, whatever??

For our camp - 1 Buckman, 1 Turning Point, 1 Ed's Crazy crab, 1 Roadkill crab, 1 Sweet November. All Blue Hill trees.
 
Wow Buck great minds eh? 1 Turning Point, 1 Ed's Crazy Crab, 1 Roadkill, 1 #5 Crab, 1 Big Dog, 1 Harvest Pear, 1 RubyRush..all from Blue Hill...
Got 2 Golden Hornets, 2 Rut Rage Pear, 1 Droptine, 1 Enterprise and 1 Macoun from Whitetail Crabs already planted this fall...and now the waiting begins...
 
4 Dolgo, 2 buckman, 2 Kerr, 2 liberty and 2 enterprise from Blue Hill and (4) 30-06 from Whitetail crabs. Got my work cut out for me as I’m in heavy bear country but I’m gonna give it a try! Not getting any younger and I’ve always wanted a deer orchard.
 
From Bluehill:
1 Sweet Advent Pear
1 Big Dog Crab
2 Turning Point Crab
1 Candy Crab
1 Meader Persimmon

From Chestnut Hill
2 Deer Candy Persimmon
2 Deer Magnet Persimmon

Also have 7 Liberty apples to transplant from the garden that I grafted last year.

I'm pretty much tapped out after this for fruit tree space.
 
From OneGreenWorld 2 more White Cloud apple
A couple Yellow Transparent with a couple others but I can't remember where from or the exact order...suprise box in March I guess.
A Couple Roberts crab don't remember where from.
And I have nine apple and crabs to move from nursery to orchards.

Also 25 Sandhill Plum
25 Hazelnut

I didn't do good late summer into fall keeping track of exactly what or where I had ordered trees from this year, was busy with to many other projects and hunting but did get some different things ordered!

Where did you get your hazelnuts from?
 
2 Turning Point, 1 Roadkill crab and 1 Ed’s Crazy crab, all from Bluehill. I will probably graft 7-10 trees that will go in the ground in the fall also and a couple bear damaged trees that will be topworked. Bears only wrecked 2 trees this year which is a huge win.
 
Where did you get your hazelnuts from?

I think ColdStream Farm out of MI but I'm not 100% on where I ordered everything this year.
I have bought hazelnuts a few times from them in the past and they have grown great.

A barlet pear and a franklin cider tree from willis as well as 18 bareroot crabs transcendent, dolgo, and american, 3 wild apple, and 2 wild pear. turkey creek 2 empire, big dog, and golden delicious.

I've a variety of 20 different applecrabs from Blue Hill coming. Very excited to get them in the ground. I really hope all the hype blue hill gets isn't a let down.

They’re on standard rootstock so don’t get discouraged by slow growing/producing trees. Have to think 5-10 years down the road at least.
 
From a local Land and Water conservation department.

25 Colorado Blue Spruce - for Xmas trees.
25 Dolgo crabapple - to be grafted and sold in the fall.
