Many folks think that it is impossible to successfully plant fruit trees in the summer. It isn't impossible, you just need to know how to do it and which plants do the best. Join us at the Garden Pool for a FREE hands-on class that will teach you everything you need to know for successful summer fruit tree planting.

We will be planting a fruit tree at the Garden Pool as we teach the best methods for successful summer fruit tree planting.

There are trees that do well in the summer, besides citrus. Here are a few fruit trees that can be planted in the summer:

Olives
Mulberry
Grapes
Pomegranate
Bananas
Sapote

After the class we will have an incredible selection of fruit trees available via donation. All donations over $50 will receive a free Garden Pool tour after purchase. Tours without fruit tree purchases will be available for a $5 donation.

Here is a partial list of what fruit trees and plants we have for sale:

Poha Berry
Moringa Oleifera seeds
Curry Leaf
Assorted Guavas
Assorted Bananas
Peanut Butter Fruit
Cinnamon Tree
Mango
Cherry of the Rio Grande
Sapote
Persian Mulberry & much more!

Help support the Garden Pool and stop by at 9AM for the FREE class and fruit tree sale on Saturday, June 30th. Chairs and water will be provided.

The Garden Pool is located near the 101 & 202 in NW Mesa, 2 blocks north of the Light Rail and just south of the Riverview Shopping center.

We look forward to meeting new folks and seeing familiar faces! Please RSVP to attend.

poultry farming – raising chickens
aquaculture – raising tilapia fish in ponds
hydroponic gardening – growing fruits, veggies, & herbs without soil
organic horticulture – using natural methods to control garden pests
