How Saylor Orchard Started

My dad bought the land that Saylor Orchard is now on during what is known as the great depression. I wanted to set the land in orchard when I finished high school in 1960. He said no, I guess he though I would set it and then leave the work to him. He said that if I still wanted to set it when I was 21 that I could have it. I ordered the first 300 trees from Stark Bros. in the fall of 1962 for a spring shipment. I was 21 on the 25th of March 1963, I already had the trees here so I started setting trees on my 21st. birthday. I also had a second setting in the fall on Nov. 22, 1963, the day president John Kennedy was assassinated. Jean and I were married Dec. 21st. that same year. The following year I grafted 3,000 trees that I grew in a nursery. Some of the trees that I grafted are still in production.

We have two varieties that we developed here. One is the Saylor Sunrise and the other is Summer Cortland. The Saylor Sunrise is a very unique apple. Some say it has a fruit punch flavor and is our best seller. The Summer Cortland is a chance seedling that we found in our nursery. It is a large apple with snow white flesh identical to the fall Cortland except the color of the peel and it is ready to pick three months earlier (mid-July). Our customers say it is the best apple they have ever found for apple sauce and apple butter.
