Think your climate is too cold to grow tender fruit?
Find out how this grower harvests peaches, plums, cherries, apricots, and more…despite winter temperatures that can dip to -38°C (-36°F) and a short summer.
In this episode, Donna and Steven chat with Saskatchewan fruit grower Dean Kreutzer.
We talk about:
- Fruit adapted to cold climates
- Using unheated greenhouses to grow tender fruit, grapes…and figs
- Heat sinks and insulated tarps
- Capturing heat from the ground—without an elaborate geothermal heating system
Kreutzer and his wife run Over the Hill Orchards in Saskatchewan.
