I am retiring this year and hope to start my life long dream of growing
trees. I have a 5 acre property in North Phoenix with water. While I
am not expecting to get rich doing this, I hope I do not loose my
saving and have a moderate income.

I have no experience and I need to learn fast. Could anyone guide me
to some websites, groups... Or even if there are professional
consulting..

thanks


I think growing cactus would be a better idea. Anyone can become an
expert gardener fast if you select plants that grow well in your area
and with the current conditions. Have the soil tested in several
areas. I suspect your soil is sandy.
