Hi there, fellow permies:
Susan Poizner, the founder and host of the
Orchard People podcast,
Orchard People fruit tree care education website, and author of gobs of
articles,
books, and
courses, is
offering something special.
Her new book,
Fruit Tree Pruning: The Science and Art of Cultivating Healthy Fruit Trees, is almost ready!
But before the book officially launches, she is inviting a small group of fruit tree growers to
get an early sneak peek (i.e. download and start reading the eBook today!) and help her launch succeed.
This book walks you through:
-The science behind pruning - so you understand why it works, not just how to do it
-Step-by-step pruning techniques for central leader and open center trees
-How pruning improves air circulation, sunlight penetration, and fruit quality - so your trees thrive
Quoted from the book:
"What I didn't realize then is that cultivated fruit trees aren't the same as wild trees. In nature, trees grow untamed. But the fruit trees in our gardens are grafted - most are actually two separate trees fused into one plant that produces the fruit we love. These trees depend on human care to thrive, and pruning is one of the most important ways we guide them toward success." -Susan Poizner
P.S. If you know anyone else who might want to join the launch team and get the free eBook, please do share, far and wide!
Sign up before February 14th here!
Show your fruit trees some love just in time for Valentine's Day!
