What an excellent weekend. I met David Tracey who is master landscape architect, apple tree expert, founder of Tree City Canada and community activist in the urban agriculture scene. I was planning to put my apple trees into planters but he suggested that a berm of soil would be sufficient for the dwarf trees that I purchased last fall at the UBC Apple Festival. It’s so nice when someone who knows comes along and gives you exactly what you need to know! His suggestion has saved me soo much time and hassle. My planter idea would have taken aleast 20 hours of work to build the plus the hassle of filling them with soil and maintaining them as the wood rots. The berm will be finished next weekend with a few hours of wheelbarrowing soil from the stash by Burrard Bridge.
