🌳 Ready to grow your own food, one tree at a time?
There’s something deeply satisfying about walking outside barefoot and picking fresh pears or cherries straight from your own trees. I’ve lived this backyard orchard life long enough to know—it’s not about perfection, it’s about progress.
That’s why I created Harvesting Paradise: Your Guide To Growing a Backyard Orchard, a down-to-earth book designed to help you turn your yard, homestead, or even a tiny patch of land into a thriving orchard that feeds your family and fills your pantry.
📘 What’s Inside:
More than a book—it’s your orchard-growing toolkit!
- ✅ Chapters that walk you through orchard planning, soil prep, tree selection, pruning, care, and organic pest control
- ✅ A printable seasonal planner to keep you on track year-round
- ✅ Fill-in-the-blank workbook pages to help you design your dream orchard and troubleshoot along the way
- ✅ A collection of my favorite fruit tree canning recipes—tested in my own kitchen from my own fruit trees and passed down to you with love
- ✅ Honest advice from a barefoot girl who’s lived it
🍎 Why I Wrote This Book:
When I first started growing fruit trees, I had no idea what I was doing—but I knew I wanted to eat from the land, not the store. After years of trial, and error, and delicious success, I packed everything I learned into this guide to save you time and help you grow confidently.
One thing I have learned with a backyard orchard is that you need to be prepared for preserving your abundance! Learn to can your fruit for many different uses!
Whether you’re in the suburbs with a backyard or living wild and free, you can build a productive little orchard that works for your space, lifestyle, and goals.
