[nafex] Moving An Apple Tree

[Tom Olenio <tolenio@sentex.net>]

Hello,

My neighbor has offered me an apple tree that is about 3" in
diameter, 7' tall, with a later spread that is about 10'.
He is putting in a utility shed, and the tree is in the way,
he is willing to wait till September so the tree has a
better chance.

I have never moved a tree of this size, what is the best
method to move it, with the least shock to the tree?  Any
suggestions on how to prepare the spot it is moving to?

He is just going to cut it down otherwise.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Tom
