About
The goal of The Orchard Almanac is to tell the home or small scale orchardist what to do, and when. Drawing from folklore and personal experience, they give both the "why" and "how-to" of growing fruit trees. Useful appendices provide access to suppliers, insectaries, related organizations, and periodicals. Tables provide spray schedules, fungicide rates, and a sample scab worksheet. The Orchard Almanac is the book that Organic Gardening magazine called "A landmark in the effort to produce apples organically.... the single best book to put on your shelf".
