Question:

Where do I find rootstock for grafting of fruit trees?

Answer:

Many nurseries that produce and sell rootstock for apples and other fruit trees provide only to commercial growers (wholesale).  However, there are a few nurseries that sell rootstocks to home gardeners (retail).  They include:

• Cummins Nursery
• Raintree Nursery
• Southmeadow Fruit Gardens

Stock is typically very limited.  Most of the availability is posted in fall or early winter, so it's good to check frequently so you can purchase what you need before they sell out.
