Welcome!
OAK CREEK ORCHARD is the name of our orchard and test site. Our main
fruit are Pomegranate, Jujube and Apricot. All of these fruit trees take less water than most, and they like our
long, hot, somewhat dry summers. We are located in Brownwood, Texas on the line of hardiness zones 7b/8a. That is West
Central Texas. We receive about 28-30 inches of rainfall a year and our soil type is loam with a ph of about 6.8.
