Keynote Address: The Holistic Orchard - NAFEX 2021 Conference

The late Michael Phillips, author of The Holistic Orchard, delivered the keynote talk at the North American Fruit Explorers (NAFEX) 2021 Virtual Conference. The conference featured presentations by expert, non-commercial fruit growers followed by Q&A. Michael's talk addresses principals of holistic orcharding with a strong emphasis on building healthy fruit trees from the soil up.

NAFEX hosts the annual meeting and conference, publishes an online quarterly newsletter called POMONA, and connects people together and to fruit, and fruit related content across a variety of platforms from social media, our website, and in person locally, regionally, and through our annual national events.

NAFEX members get complete access to the annual meeting/conference, recorded sessions from our past annual conferences, access to monthly virtual meetups for fruit growers, four digital or print editions of the quarterly POMONA journal, access to 50 years of digitized and searchable POMONAs, and links to regional resources.
