"Canadian Customers

In 1994 our Agriculture Dept. began charging $25.00 to write the
necessary phytosanitary certificates for Canadian orders.  If
you are willing to pay this $25 charge and would like to import nut
trees or other allowed species (no apples, pears, plums,
cherries or apricots, ) write or phone us several months in advance of
the proposed order.  You will need an import permit. "
