Visit a sweet homestead boasting food forest-inspired fruit and nut trees, berry bushes, and topiary in Mt. Vernon, Maine. Greg and Debbie grow cherries, mulberries, apples, elderberries, chestnuts, hazelnuts, and more. This is a perfect opportunity for those interested in homesteading, having fun with topiary, propagating trees, and/or cultivating fruits and nuts — especially those less commonly grown in Maine. Learn about Greg’s transition from primarily vegetable gardening toward their love of growing trees and fruit; and come away with ideas for the garden or homestead in your life.
