On the Road Tour - A Day With Family-Owned Businesses

For over 70 years, the Schmidt Family has been Growing New Ideas. As originators of the Red Sunset ® Maple and introducer or co-introducer of more than 50 other patented or trademarked cultivars, the company is known as a premier source of deciduous trees cultivars and new introductions.

Red Pig Garden Tools make garden tools old-fashioned way by hand, with steel, fire, an anvil & sweat! These hand-crafted tools are stronger, sharper and will last longer than any others you can buy. You will also learn How you use the tool is as important as the tool itself.
