Northern Gardening: Fruit Trees

Fruit trees can be a great addition to your yard, bringing joy as they blossom in spring, attracting pollinators, all the way through to providing tasty fruit in the fall. This month, we’re focusing the entire show on growing fruit trees—specifically apples—in the unique cold climate of Cook County. Learn more about hardy varieties, site selection, and how to protect your trees from local wildlife so you can enjoy home-grown fruit for years to come.

Northern Gardening airs every 2nd Thursday of the Month at 7 pm, then again at 6 am the following Saturday. All previously aired programs are archived on our website to listen to at any time.
