Publisher's summary

Want to know the secrets of growing fruit trees in your backyard and not failing while doing so?

There’s something about biting into a fresh fruit plucked straight from a tree. That sudden explosion of crisp flavor tingling your tastebuds and making your mouth water for more is quite an experience. Now, imagine if you had grown that very fruit in your backyard.

If you want to:

  • Relish the taste of fresh fruit.
  • Provide your family with organic food.
  • Save on your grocery bills.

Then growing fruit trees is your calling. Just take this guide as your companion to get started.

Within this audiobook, you will discover:

  • The ultimate gardener’s manual for planting and pruning trees.
  • Location, location, location–giving the right home to your tree is all about choosing the right place, and making the soil fit for its survival (even if you’re short on space!)
  • Picking the right trees for your garden–from USDA Hardiness zones to tree growth habits, there’s enough to unpack here for beginners and veteran gardeners alike.
  • How to protect your fruit trees from 20 common diseases and seven common animals and insects.
  • A rich four-season tree care plan–take care of your tree’s watering, fertilizing, mulching, and weeding needs.
  • Harvesting 101–bring fresh fruits from trees to your table, and even discover how to store them for long-term use.
  • The birds and the bees of trees (or how to pollinate by actually using the birds and the bees).

And much more.

Growing your own fruit helps you become self-sufficient–you don’t need to make grocery store trips if fresh food is waiting for you in your backyard. And if you already happen to have a fruit tree in your backyard, then the secret to restoring them also lies within this audiobook.

So don’t hesitate any longer. Start growing fresh, juicy fruits in your backyard today!

A Must-Read for Any Aspiring Gardener!

Fantastic! First, the emphasis on selecting the right location for fruit trees really hit home. I never realized how important it was to have the right soil conditions and drainage in order to produce abundant fruit. Second, the section on pruning was incredibly helpful. I've always been intimidated by pruning, but the clear and detailed instructions made it seem easy. Lastly, the section on pest and disease management was eye-opening. I had no idea there were so many common pests and diseases that could affect fruit trees, but the strategies provided for dealing with them were incredibly helpful.

My main takeaway from this book is that growing fruit trees is not as difficult as I previously thought as long as you have the right knowledge and techniques. Jonathan Wheeler provides clear and concise instructions, making it easy for even novice gardeners like myself to follow along. I'm excited to put what I've learned into practice and start growing my own fruit.

I have to also mention that the narrator was a pleasure to listen to. Their voice was clear and engaging, making it easy to stay focused on the material. Overall, I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in growing their own fruit trees.

Abundantly informative!

Thorough information about growing fruit trees, and what factors to consider when looking to grow fruit. Greatly appreciated the author including local climate factors in your region, and soil quality/drainage when selecting fruit trees for a given growing site. The author is clearly well versed in the subject with first hand experience with fruit and vegetable gardening, and lays out the content in a way that is easy to follow.

The narrator was engaging and easy to listen to, and I found myself not needing to replay sections or chapters in order to retain the information shared. An excellent resource overall, and looking forward to applying the knowledge gained on my own property!

Great tips & easy to understand!

A very easy to understand book with great tips. From beginners to long term gardeners, I found I was reminded of some things I had forgotten and I learned a few new techniques to aid in my favorite passion, gardening. Having moved to a completely different region of the country a little over six years ago, it has been an adjustment in how I think about growing things. I can’t wait to put some of the things I learned into practice! I loved how the story of Johnathon was told in each chapter. I would highly recommend!
