  1. Farming, Gardening & Homesteading
    I have a Brown Turkey Fig tree that is sprouting from the roots. Will it bear figs, or is it some type of root stock? A few weeks ago I dropped by a farm supply store to get some seeds. They had a pitiful looking fig tree that the top had died and it was sprouting from the base of the tree. I...
  2. Farming, Gardening & Homesteading
    This year I drove several large fertilizer spikes in the ground around some of my fruit trees - fig, pear, plum and apple. Reviews on Amazon are good, but has anyone here used them? My fruit trees have not been doing that great so I decided to go all out this year. A week ago I sprayed them...

    My opinion, if your going to prepare for some kind of event, then fruit trees should be part of your plans - especially if you own enough plant to plant some trees. If your an urban survivalist, then take a look at the dwarf fruit trees. Some types of dwarfs may not get 8 feet tall and might...
