About the event
Growing Fruit Trees in the Lowcountry
Tuesday, December 8th
10:00am- 11:30am
Growing fruit trees in the Lowcountry can be incredibly rewarding—but success starts with choosing the right tree for the right place.
Join Ben Sinderman, founder of Permanent Yield, for a practical introduction to growing fruit trees specifically for the Charleston area. Ben will explore the best species and cultivars for our Lowcountry climate, along with what gardeners need to know about proper planting and ongoing care.
The discussion will also look beyond the tree itself, exploring how companion plants can support healthier, more productive fruit trees and how thoughtful plant selection can contribute to a thriving home orchard or edible landscape.
