Growing Tips
Apple Growing Tip
Besides selecting the most disease resistant varieties, there are
a few simple things to do to have better apples.
- Fertilize under the outer edges of your trees. There are no feeder roots next to the trunk. A well fed tree stays healthier. (Adequate calcium in the soil also helps so that apples keep longer.)
- Pick up fallen fruit and compost, dispose of, or feed to livestock (where possible).
- Rake up leaves in the fall and compost them away from the orchard.
- Prune trees to encourage light and air to reach the inside of the tree.
- Provide bird nesting sites near your orchard. A variety of orchard companion type plants will attract native pollinator insects and also encourage birds to come and eat insect pests.
Red Product Overview
Apple (Malus)
One of the most challenging fruits to grow organically, but take heart! Choosing one of our scab resistant varieties is a good start. With the vast array of flavours available (even for colder regions) in this healthy, versatile fruit, it would be a shame not to try a few trees. Natural pest control with insect traps and kaolin clay sprays can be used if desired. However, apples that are less than picture perfect are still just as flavourful and nutritious. Even with insect damaged fruit all is not lost. Drying, juicing or making apple sauce are still great options. Remember the old adage ‘an apple a day keeps the doctor away’ was coined before the days of pesticide sprays.

What is Orchard Grade?
An 'orchard grade' is a tree that may be somewhat shorter, slightly crooked, or a bit scratched, or for some other reason is not a perfect front lawn specimen. These trees will work just as well in an orchard as a first or number one would, since they still produce the very same fruit.

They are beginning to leaf out nicely and both seem very healthy and thrifty.

The trees came in dormant conditions. It can be seen that they were taken very good care of, and wrapped very well! The trees are just in perfect conditions. I soaked them in water before planting the next day. Now, two weeks later, they are all leafing out and the peach tree even started blooming! The manual came along is very instructive and easy to follow, it definitely shows the hows in a concise and practical way. I could not say too many good words, am just happy.

I ordered it during the sale and was a bit worried it might die, but it's doing amazing and I can't wait to try it's fruit in a few years
