Appendix How to Make Traditional Apple Butter Conclusion Author Bio Publisher Introduction For all of those who have grown up on the aphorism of an apple a day keeps the doctor away, they are not going to find it surprising that since ancient times, Apples have been considered to be The Fruit of the Gods. Norse gods were given a daily diet of apples in order to help them keep their youth and beauty by the goddess Edda. It was one of the tasks of Hercules in Greek mythology to obtain the Golden Apples of Life in the Garden of Hesperides. In the same way Paris was asked to judge between 3 goddesses, Aphrodite, Athena and Hera on the general theme of who is the fairest of them all. Aphrodite bribed him with Helen – the most beautiful woman in the world – and he awarded her the Golden Apple of beauty. And so, fate brought about the 10 year Trojan war with the gods and goddesses taking sides in the activities of men. Wild apples are supposed to have originated in Asia, – especially in Kazakhstan and Tajikistan area – where you can still find them growing wild today. The domestic variety was then taken from Central Asia by nomads to other parts of Europe, Asia and grown in gardens and orchards. European colonists took the apple from Europe to America in the 15th century. But before that these apples were a major part of ancient Greek, Norse and Scandinavian history. For millenniums people in Europe and Asia survived harsh winters by subsisting on apples that they had picked in autumn. Even now, in many parts of the world, these apples preserved just above freezing level are a major part of the winter nutritious daily diet. Crab apples are native North American apples, also called Common Apples. Apple growing is a multibillion dollar industry today in many parts of the USA, thanks to Rev. William Blaxton who planted the first apple orchard in Boston somewhere around 1625. Colonial farms at that time got their seeds from traders from Europe. So, this book introduces you to growing one of the most popular and well-known of fruits, which has been grown all over the world longer than any other fruit.

That is when plant life evolved along with animal life. And that is how the surface of the earth was covered with lush fruitful vegetation, which flourished and evolved in different climates. As time went by, climatic changes also changed the nature and the appearance of these plants. From multicelled algae and fungi, they became huge multicelled giant trees, like the Sequoia, which are remnants of those glorious days of giant Green trees gone by. And soon man found out that trees were very useful to give him shelter, to give him food, and to provide him with essential fruit, leaves, and seeds to supplement his diet. That was because he was imitating the animals around him. They nibbled at leaves, he did the same thing. Sometimes he ended up with a tummy ache. Sometimes the animals ended up sick while he was left hale and hearty. But down the ages, and through lots of trial and error, he found out that every single plant out there could be put into use, even those plants we consider weeds today. The mythological and historical hanging Gardens of Babylon, which were supposed to have been built by Nebuchadnezzar, but in actuality were built by Sennacherib in Nineveh, Assyria, about 300 km away from Babylon. These were lush with green trees from all over the world. And historians who are not really bothered about historic authenticity and the names of kings, did not bother much about the locality or the creator of one of the seven wonders of the ancient world. First-hand accounts of that time were not available, and when Babylon conquered Assyria, they called it the new Babylon. And so centuries later historians wrote about the wonders of marvelous trees and green vegetation, growing in Babylon. So that is the reason why since ancient times, trees, especially fruit trees have been an important part of cultured and civilized landscaping. They were and are planted in gardens for the pleasure of the general public or for your own private enjoyment. You can grow one kind of fruit or another in almost any garden. Even the smallest garden can produce apples and strawberries. If you have plenty of land you are lucky because you have the space to allow your trees to spread their wings and flourish.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fruit gardening is a fun and rewarding activity that can be enjoyed by beginners and experienced gardeners alike. It provides a great opportunity to connect with nature, improve your health, and enjoy the delicious fruits of your labor. If you are new to gardening, fruit gardening is a great place to start. One of the main benefits of fruit gardening is the abundance of fresh, flavorful fruits that you can harvest right from your own backyard. From juicy strawberries to crisp apples and everything in between, growing your own fruit ensures that you have access to fresh, healthy, and delicious produce throughout the growing season. In addition to the satisfaction of growing your own food, fruit gardening is also a great way to improve your health. Fruits are packed with vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants that can boost your immune system, promote healthy digestion, and support overall wellness. Plus, spending time outdoors and working in the garden can reduce stress, improve mood, and provide a great source of exercise. For beginners, fruit gardening is a great way to learn the basics of gardening. Unlike vegetables, which require frequent watering and fertilization, many fruit trees and bushes are low-maintenance and easy to care for. With a little bit of research and some simple tools, you can start growing your own fruit in no time. To get started with fruit gardening, it is important to choose the right plants for your location and climate. Some fruits, like strawberries and blueberries, thrive in cooler climates, while others, like peaches and figs, prefer warmer temperatures. Researching the best fruit varieties for your area will help ensure that you have a successful harvest. Another important factor to consider when starting a fruit garden is the amount of space you have available. Many fruit trees and bushes can grow quite large, so it is important to choose varieties that are appropriate for your space. Dwarf varieties are a great option for small yards or container gardens. Once you have chosen your plants, it is time to prepare your soil and get started with planting. Fruit trees and bushes typically require well-draining soil and plenty of sunlight. Adding compost or other organic matter to your soil can help improve fertility and promote healthy growth. With a little bit of time and effort, you can enjoy a bountiful harvest of fresh, delicious fruit from your own backyard. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced gardener, fruit gardening is a fun and rewarding activity that is sure to provide many years of enjoyment. So why not give it a try? You might just discover a new passion for growing your own food and connecting with nature.
