http://www.survivalistboards.com/showthread.php?t=103167 Planting a peach tree and talking about fruit tree considerations. My opinion, if your going to prepare for some kind of event, then fruit trees should be part of your plans.

Some of the types of trees that I have planted include peach, apple, plum, pear and fig.

To measure the distance between the trees, instead of using a tape measure, I used a 50 foot piece of rope.

  • Cool,allthough if you want great fertilzer that won't kill your trees I would suggest composting, no cost but time and the best no chemical fertilzer you can get! As for gardens not coming back every year, you should look at some permaculture videos, it is all about sustainable living and gardening, a garen planted right will come back or re-seed itself. Great Job

  • Yep!! I have planted 7 fruit trees. Last year I got 90 HUGE peaches of a young tree. Dont forget to plant raspberries somewhere. Get the kind that produce berries both spring and fall. I get gallons of food from my raspberry bushes. Once you get it established, rhubarb comes back every year and is good, too. It can substitute in many dishes where you want a tart flavoring. Any kind of nuts is great for protein and oil so dont forget a few nut trees or bushes. Canning requires sugar. Dehydrate!

  • You can also grow citrus in your house ( I found that out recently) You just have to upgrade the container as it grows. Lemons are helpful in the kitchen as well as for cleaning!

  • very nice, I pick my own fruit off of wild trees and can them in a pressure canner

  • Learn how to properly prune, train, and shape those trees. To get the best production for the most number of years, you've just gotta put in a little work every year. Less than 10-12 minutes per tree each year. Doesn't take long to learn.
