Stark also has a list of fruit that will grow in your area.
All you do is type in your zip code and all of the apples or what ever will come up and the pollinator needed.

It is the word lime that confuses people and the term sweeten soil.
Lime fruit sour acidic, Lime stone basic or alkali.
If it were me I would add copious amounts of peat to the soil to help acidify it if needed.
It would also help to loosen the soil.
But we all do things differently.
When I lived in southern Mo we didn't do anything to the soil and grew fantastic blueberries.
Too stupid to know better.
Southern Mo is nothing but limestone.
