Our anchor annual: hardy, productive, and well suited to hot, dry growing conditions. Selected for resilience and strong early-season output.
The Orchard & Growing Land
Developed in phases, season by season.
Haven Orchards is being developed in phases. Annual crops create early momentum while fruiting trees and perennial plantings establish the long-term orchard.
