Plant today. Harvest for years.The Backyard Orchard is a practical beginner’s guide to growing fruit trees, berries, and vines for the home grower. Written for homesteaders and first-time orchard planters, it explains how to choose fruit that fits your climate, soil, space, and patience level, then plant and care for it so it has the best chance to feed your household for years to come.Inside, you’ll learn how fruit differs from annual vegetables, why chill hours matter, how dwarf and semi-dwarf trees change the math, how pollination works, how to plant bare-root and potted trees, and why berries are the fastest fruit reward for beginners. The book also covers grapes, young-tree care, pruning basics, pests and disease, harvest timing, storage, preserving, and a realistic small-orchard plan with honest costs, yields, and long-term value. Start small, choose well for your place, and build an orchard that grows with you.
