Supporting your fruit trees.
have you ever heard of a fruit tree guild?
A guild is a community of plants that grow and support each other by recycling nutrients back into the soil, providing shade, conserving water, attracting beneficial insects, repelling pests & diseases, building soil, preventing erosion & so much more!
There are an abundance of plants that you can add to a guild. Try themes like flowering plants, edible foods or herb guild. If it were up to me I would be picking my fav plants from all of the themes to create the most thriving, impactful space.
some plants that are beneficial in a fruit tree guild include: violas, echinacea, yarrow, marigold, nasturtium, thyme, strawberries, garlic, lavender & more.
If you would like a full plant list and more information on the importance of supporting your fruit trees please reach out!
