Draft fruit trees are wonderful for kids. Remember when you were small trees seemed to touch the sky and adults seemed like giants? Imagine how a child must feel standing next to a mature tree that is only 6’-10’ high. Dwarf trees are just the right height for kids!
Even with dwarf trees, children can’t always reach to pick the fruit. This is good for a couple of reasons. First of all you won’t have to worry about a child picking off the fruit before its ready. Second, when it is time to pick, it won’t take a lot of boost to a child up high enough to pick so there isn’t a dangerous height involved.
For educational benefits as well dwarf fruit trees are great for kids.
