Instructor: Michelle Hickey
Did you know you can grow peaches, nectarines, pears, Asian pears, plums, cherries and apples in your yard? When grown as a fruit tree guild with companion plants maintenance is minimized, nutrition is increased, and diseases and pests are managed naturally.
The foundation of this garden design is a fruit tree guild which will need a full sun location (6+ hours daily) and a minimum of 100 square feet (10’x10′). Most edible plants require full or partial sun to be productive, so we will focus on these plants only. This will be an information packed discussion, so bring a notebook and pencil. Handouts will be distributed.
Fee: $30 Individuals/$45 for you and a friend
