About My Edible Backyard


Why Jordy Love's Edible Plants

%uFFFDI have moved back to the farm and spent the last 3 years setting up my orchard. I have heaps of room so i have collected about 50 trees in this time. I have the aim of producing fresh friut of some kind all year for my wife and 1 month old son. Average rainfall 425mm with very hot summers with scorching north winds, occasional frosts.Poor soil needs lots of work. im trying some sub tropical and unusual trees with mostly success.
