Default CYPRESS KNEES, a Supplier

Hi!
Just got home from a long trip, but I went by my favorite supplier of Cypress Knees while in central Florida. I asked if they ship, they said, "Yes, and we charge actual shipping costs". Their prices are very fair...$5 to $30 depending on size and number of connected knees, a few really big ones might be a little more.
Here's their info:
Fruitree phone 863-439-1396
P.O.Box 939 The person to talk to is Gail Malone
Dundee, FL 33838
********************
I'm not affiliated with them in any way, other than being a happy customer whose bought a few pick-up loads of knees from them. They're good Folks!
********************
I'll try to post a few pictures on this thread tomorrow.
It's sure good to be home!
Wade

Wade welcome back neither you or I won the cane oh well maybe next time. Everyone has been concerned we had not heard from you. Hope the trip went fine and you found what you were looking for.Thanks for the heads up on the cypress knee's.

I have to say that sounds like an outrageous price to me but I guess it depends on where you live. I usually buy a pick-up load of around 100-150 for about $100 t0 $120. All sizes from 12" to 36". Of course those people are doing it as a business, I suppose and that would make a lot of difference. Anybody close to western Tenn. or West Ky. I can put you in touch with MUCH better sources if you can pick them up and buy in quantity.

I don't really have a price as I have a retired Forest Ranger who brings me a load when I need them. You would have to pick them up here in W. Ky and take a truck load.

Doug,
I'd drive to KY for a 100+ knee pick-up load for $120 or so! Let us know where, it sounds great!

Where are you located? I will have to get in touch with him and ask and let you know. Oh yeah, be advised that these will be fresh cut knees with the bark still on them. If you are still interested let me know and I'll contact him. The price I quoted is approximate but should be close. I would probably have to have him deliver them here and you pick them up here in Paducah.
