We strive to be very clear in our classes that you will spend as much on your planting supplies and supplements as you do on the tree and have very specific guidelines for fruit tree success in extreme climates. In this class we cover all the supplies you need to ensure your fruit tree investment pays off, and help you figure out how much you need and when for the quantities of trees in your space. This includes planting mixes, supplements, fertilizers, foliar feeds, watering devices, chlorine filters and so much more.
Ready to pick up your trees and planting supplies? We will be open Saturday, & Sunday: Sept 27, 28, then on Friday & Saturday: Oct 3 & 4. The General Store will be also open and we will have our familiar bagged soils, fertilizers, and woody mulch. Slots will be added as our Tree Crew is filled out.

Through years of research and experience, and the help of our trusted fruit tree experts and mentors, we learned what is working for fruit trees in our extreme climate.

My favorite thing to grow is a fruit tree - you plant it once and reap a bounty for decades. But did you know that you can go into every big box store and most nurseries and they will sell you a fruit tree that will never make fruit? And that made me mad so I started teaching people about how to avoid the pitfalls.

The long term health of fruit trees in our extreme desert climate depends on three aspects of loving and caring for your fruit tree: Planting, watering, and applying fertilizers at the right times. Plants need to eat and drink daily just like we do, so fertilizing them once a year just isn’t enough.
