Fruits and Berries of the Pacific Northwest: Bright red to yellow to green apples that yield up their goodness with sharp crunches; drippy-sweet peaches that blush in vibrant shades of red on gold; aromatic pears that dissolve in the mouth; plump berries in colorful shades of blue, red, purple, and black; cluster of pale to dusky grapes that saturate the taste buds – one of life's major delights has to be fruit. Whether it's a Granny Smith apple, a Golden Jubilee peach, a buttery d'Anjou pear, or a ripe Rainier cherry, it looks good, it tastes good, and it's good for you!

This book has been prepared to give the reader general information on the kinds of fruit suitable for growing in most parts of the Northwest. Included is an overview of planning an orchard or fruit-growing area – backyard or commercial – and planting and caring for trees and vines.

You'll find an account of the fascinating fruit industry, and stories about some of the people who have devoted their lives to bringing us attractive and healthy fruit.
