The Orchard


Apples


We are indeed thankful. With a freeze just last week where so many lost their fruit crops we were for the most part spared. Although I think we were just on the borderline of temperatures as we do see an occasional burned leaf or blossom in some of the lowest areas. So far our fruit has remained unharmed. 


Plums


Peaches


Strawberries

Grapes

The only thing not blooming yet is the blackberries!

  6. You are going to have so much fruit! My peach tree produces only tiny peaches, hardly bigger than an egg, if even that big. They taste good but hardly worth the effort. I don't know what to do!

    1. Try thinning the fruit, Sometimes it is better to have less fruit but bigger : )

  7. Such beautiful pictures! I'm really jealous of those little apples of yours - we probably won't have any on our little trees for another couple of years. Yours are all doing great, though!
