If you lived closer to NY I have plenty of crabapple wood you could
have... just pruned limbs from two huge trees, the six inch diameter
limbs will just decay in the woods. This fall I will prune some
shagbark hickery trees, limbs are too low to drive my tractor under,
you can have those too. I would prune those hickory now only the deer
flies are too ripe, need to wait for cold temps, too many ticks now
too. Greene county, NY is having a huge outbreak of Lyme disease.
