Growing Fruit Trees in the Lowcountry

About This Event

Growing Fruit Trees in the Lowcountry

Tuesday, December 8th

10:00am- 11:30am

Growing fruit trees in the Lowcountry can be incredibly rewarding—but success starts with choosing the right tree for the right place.

Join Ben Sinderman, founder of Permanent Yield, for a practical introduction to growing fruit trees specifically for the Charleston area. Ben will explore the best species and cultivars for our Lowcountry climate, along with what gardeners need to know about proper planting and ongoing care.

The discussion will also look beyond the tree itself, exploring how companion plants can support healthier, more productive fruit trees and how thoughtful plant selection can contribute to a thriving home orchard or edible landscape.

Whether you're hoping to plant your first fruit tree or looking to improve what you're already growing, you'll leave with a better understanding of how to select, plant, and care for fruit trees suited to the Lowcountry.

Ben Sinderman is the founder of Permanent Yield, a Charleston-based ecological landscape design and installation company specializing in edible, native, and regenerative landscapes. A trained Permaculture Designer, Ben has additional study in soil regeneration, biodynamic agriculture, Korean Natural Farming, JADAM, and syntropic agroforestry. His work includes edible landscapes, food forests, and home orchards, with a focus on selecting and caring for food-producing plants suited to the South Carolina Lowcountry.
