The 20th Annual Urban Farm
Fruit Tree Education Program begins Sept 1!!!

Education designed specifically to lead you down the path of success.

The 2019-20 Urban Farm Fruit Tree Program runs from August 2019 to February 2020.  It starts in the fall of each year with our official launch on Saturday September 7th, which is followed up with many fruit tree classes offered in person, online, and as prerecorded options.  In the fall, you have an opportunity to pre-order “Urban Farm Approved” fruit trees that are specifically selected to thrive in the low desert. The Urban Farm Pop-up Nursery itself is open on select days in Oct & Nov (citrus), and Jan & Feb (deciduous) for you to pick up your new trees and to get what you need to get them planted, watered, fertilized and nurtured.

We’ve come a LONG way from those first classes held in Greg’s living room in 1999. Since then we have helped at least 30,000 fruit trees get planted with thousands and thousands more to go!

Why plant fruit trees in your garden? Two words: fruit and trees. Fruit trees provide maximum benefit with very little effort. Plant a fruit tree once, and it will provide for you for YEARS to come. Not just fruit, but cooling shade, mulch for your yard, and a habitat for beneficial insects & birds.

And growing trees is simple! Just follow the arrows above to get started.

Pick up your soils and amendments during our special General Store: Early Soil Pick-Up Days.  This is a new thing for us this year so we are still working out some kinks, but we will open one day each in October and November and bring in a small crew so that you can come pick up your soil supplies and get a head start on preparing those holes.  Sorry, but no fertilizer will be available.

Afterwards, we will all have to wait until January for the lot to open, as it really is a challenge to get these General Store days put together during the holidays.

Next-to-Last step is to pick up your trees at the Nursery!  This is a BORROWED location that will be set-up and ready for you to pick up your trees in January and February.

Please plan on picking up your deciduous trees in January, and your citrus trees in mid February for best success.  We will have exact dates (Fridays and Saturdays only) after we have confirmed the deliveries.  Click HERE for more information. Be sure to check back starting in early January for updates.

Nursery and General Store Location:  4549 N 7th Street, Phoenix.  Parking is on side street only.
(This is a borrowed and seasonal location only, so we are not here year-round, and this is NOT our mailing address)
