Fruit Tree Folk

Fruit Tree Folk The Fruit Tree Folk provide specialist advice, complete management and care for domestic fruit trees

The Fruit Tree Folk is owned and operated by Christy Clarke, a qualified arborist and experienced horticulturalist. Our services include:

Planting: We can advise on a range of fruit trees that suit your available space - from miniature trees for balconies, trees in pots for courtyards and in the ground. We can prepare the soil, plant them for you and provide you with a care and management plan t

o keep them healthy. Pruning: We combine our knowledge of fruit trees with modern arboricultural techniques to provide specialist pruning services that will keep your tree healthy and fruiting including: formative pruning, renovation prunes, pruning for spurs and fruit in summer and winter. Pest and disease management: We provide environmentally friendly disease treatments and pest management for all species of fruit trees, including leaf curl treatment, gall wasp removal and prevention, and responsible netting to protect your harvest. Thinning, harvesting and dealing with your excess fruit: While it is tempting to leave those clusters of forming fruit, thinning or removing some of the forming fruit helps the tree to direct its energy into producing a smaller number of larger, better quality fruit. Learn to care for your fruit tree: We believe that when people learn about growing, you and your community benefit. We encourage you to ask us questions, help us prune and learn as we go!
