FARMING: Fruit tree expert running out of time to keep nursery
FRUIT TREE EXPERT RUNNING OUT OF TIME TO KEEP NURSERY

ARTICLE IN NORTH COUNTY TIMES
DECEMBER 5, 09


At the intersection of the building industry collapse and the push for healthier foods and California-climate-friendly landscaping, a nursery owner near Vista wonders what hit him.
Steven Spangler raises some 1,200 varieties of plants at his 5-acre Exotica Rare Fruit Nursery. Where else can you find Ecuadorean black walnuts and Makepeace apples on the same lot?
On his botanic garden-like plot, Spangler also raises:
-- Seven varieties of cherries;
-- 16 varieties of guavas;
-- 17 varieties of palm;
-- 100 varieties of pomegranates;
-- 12 varieties of bananas.
In all, an estimated 60,000 potted plants grow here, awaiting new homes that came quickly during the building boom

COMMENT ON NORTH COUNTY TIMES

Arabra Speakwell said on: December 9, 2009, 12:10 am
Lovely place! I read this story and went by last weekend. The antithesis of Home Depot, Exotioca is very simple, natural and very, very low key. The huge in-the-ground exotics are so beautiful -- you don't get to see them in a common commerical nursery. We found wonderful plants and enjoyed spending time walking the endless paths under bamboo and endless exotics just learning and smelling new smells. And we bought a lot of amazing plants! Great special Holiday gifts! Check it out and help them make the rent. It would be a tradegy for the plant loving community to lose this amazing resource.

Endangered Rare Fruit Nursery
in Vista Needs Ideas, Support and Help
An invaluable local environmental resource is in great peril and needs the support of people who care about organic growing, non-factory farms, biodiversity and nurturing the earth.
The Exotica Rare Fruit Nursery in Vista is a remarkable place that is home to many rare species of fruit tree as well as numerous types that are perfectly adapted for growing in Southern California. Steve Hays, the publisher of this magazine, has himself bought a now-flourishing apple tree there, as well as a Barbados Cherry, a bush that produces the fruit used in the production of Vitamin C-packed acerola. Add to that a stock assessed at a worth of a million dollars that includes Cherimoya, Kiwi, Persimmon, Papaya, Mango, and Pomegranate along with Nut varieties and Bamboo and, frankly, just about any fruit you can name, and you’ll have some idea of just what has been created there. Many of its trees are over twenty years old.
Steven Spangler, the caretaker of this precious botanical resource, reports that back rent is owed on three of his five acres. A hearing in Vista on November 19 gave him eight months to come up with a solution lest the land be taken over by a developer who wishes to use it for a commercial building. Steven has an option to purchase for $350,000 and is currently considering various options on how to purchase, including community ownership or making it a co-op. He seeks ideas, funding and community awareness of this local Eden that needs to be preserved.

A Facebook Cause page has been started at http://apps.facebook.com/causes/399622?m=8c8a0ec7,
as well as on the Web site of Leslie Goldman, San Diego’s Enchanted Gardener. The nursery can be contacted at 2508 E. Vista Way, Ste. B, Vista, CA, 92084. You can reach Steven Spangler directly at (760) 724-9093.
