I’m in NE Ohio. We just planted some 2 year old apple, pear, plum, cherry, and peach trees. We also planted a couple of Chicago figs, which are supposed to survive our winters. We realize it will be awhile before getting fruit, but thought we better get started. As a bonus, we got a few pears from an older tree we pruned back. It’s a start. It takes a while and some education to transition to growing your own food, and last year we decided to get serious about it. The gardens yielded faster results, and I was able to can some produce. I froze some, but our electric went out and we lost quite a bit. Hence, we have a generator on order.
