Selecting the correct crop or blend of crops is critical to the success of a small farm. Many options and decisions must be researched before establishing a production system. Edible Landscaping is a well-established, knowledgeable source of information and a source for many varieties of fruiting plants. Please join us and take a tour of the facility while being presented with the latest on selecting fruit varieties.
