Vineyard Update after 7 growing seasons: But first, funny thing this internet, here I am researching some cold hardy vines to add/replace in my vineyard and what do I find but my own post from 6 years ago about the same thing! I first started reading thinking, geez, someone else close to me is...

Thanks sqfgardiner45. It was Steve that I had my first unfortunate dealings with at Green Barn Montreal and when he rolled into the picture at Wiffletree I ran the other way. I will try them out again.

Seems it was not an isolated incident. Here's a few more people who have received dead stock. http://www.gardenweb.com/discussions/1467044/got-my-tree-order-inthink-some-were-shipped-dead?ps=1

Siwash - Not familiar with either of them but I believe most people selling nursery stock are decent and are trying to do do the right thing. Have a talk with your nursery first, ask about when they ship and how they package and any other questions and feel them out. Remember, if you can hold...

Green Barn Nursery Failure Update. Things are even worse this year and it looks like if I want my orchard without holes I am going to be buying some potted stock soon. As I had said before, I bought stock from many nurseries last year. The stock from Green Barn arrived in bareroot form in...

cwdchan, I had ordered my vines from a couple of sources last year. I had gotten sommerset from Hardyfruittrees.ca. It was a bit expensive but the stock was good and preformed very well and showed up on time and well packed. When I was at the end of my rope trying to contact Green Barn in...

Julie, I tried many avenues to get retribution. Canada has a better business bureau as well but it doesn't apply to Quebec as they have their own organization and I could not file a claim from a province outside of Quebec. I am in Ontario.

Yes Anna, I think you are correct about the restructuring. I would like to give them the benefit of the doubt and maybe they will have gotten better through their restructuring. It still doesn't change the fact that they shipped me some bare root stock that arrived 8 weeks after the planting...

I had contacted double A but they won't ship to Ontario unfortunately.

Yes, did pay by CC but they required payment when ordering (March). Apparently you can only dispute a payment within 90 days so Mastercard says they can't do anything.
