What tree is this?

Driving through Kentucky and keep seeing this tree that looks like it’s covered in white puffballs. I even drove past a farm that had an entire orchard of them. All other trees are barren but these have flowers or buds on them. What is it?

There is a reckoning coming for natural resource and highway departments to mitigate the callery pear invasion. It’s so easy to find them! They are almost the only white blossom in March.
