I’m guessing I would be closer to a zone 6 because of the altitude. My research has shown certain types of cherry, plum, apple, and peach trees would grow, but any first hand experience would be great.

I admire their simplistic life style and self reliance. In this day and age we are so disconnected and depend on others for our livelyhood. Our government is not dependable…i.e., Katrina..I would like to be less dependent and have more options and knowledge for taking care of my family…

I have an area in my backyard where i want to grow something edible, preferably fruit. The issue is the area only gets a good amount of sun in the middle part of the day, but when there is sun it is good intense sun. What would be the best thing for me to grow there?
If it helps i live in the Bay Area in California.

The area is in my backyard with a great big pine tree soaring over where the soil is blocking out quite a lot of sun ( although a few rays manage to get through during the day). Previously in this spot I had grown an apple tree but that is completely dead now so I am hoping for some advice in to what would be a suitable fruit tree for this sort of area in a garden. Thanks for your help!

Thanks very much. All help greatly appreciated.
