This is the perfect time to plant fruit trees from "bare root" stock.   What is bare root?  How do you find and select the best trees?  What is the recommended way to plant - including when and how to prune initially?   The answer to that might surprise you!  Come learn about these topics and much more from master gardeners and also learn about fruit tree varieties that do best in our area.   Espalier techniques will be discussed if there is time.  See also homeorchard.ucdavis.edu for information on Home Orchards.
