Fruit Trees

Tropical fruit trees provide a reliable source of food, often during times of the year when food is scarce. Once established, trees can bear fruit even as environmental conditions fluctuate drastically and thus contribute to farm resiliency. Fruit trees, once established, require less labor than annual crops. Most fruit tree seed is viable only for a short time, and therefore are not always in stock.
