Join Farmer Greg as he personally takes you on a virtual tour of The Urban Farm, Phoenix’s first and oldest environmental showcase urban farm. Before Greg left the Urban Farm he hired a filming crew and created a 5 part docuseries on The Urban Farm and all the permaculture and regenerative systems that he created there.  This event will be a viewing party for the fruit tree segment of the docuseries then we will review our Early Bird Fruit Tree Specials and answer your questions.

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.

There are three things that most people do to kill their trees. We will explore what you can do to avoid them and learn skills for ultimate fruit tree success! We will dive in and get a better understanding about how to make healthy soil for your tree to grow into. Plus you will learn Greg’s 6/6 rule (A must for all fruit trees) and the best shape and size to dig your planting hole.

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.
