ECHO field trip

I loved the ECHO field trip. I want to grow many of the exotic fruit bearing trees they have at ECHO. I would love to cultivate Carambola, Strawberry Tree, Kieffer Lime, and Variegated Pink Lemon. ECHO is a good trip because of the fact that it shows that a large variety of edible plants can be grown in our somehwat extreme climate. This gives confidence to an amatuer like me to pursue sustainable crops of my own. I have grown some small edible crops of my own here and there, but not a whole lot. ECHO is a good resource I gained for example and for a seed bank as well.
