May Update: Those blooms from last month have turned into what looks to be a promising apple crop. Check out these – they look somewhat like a nest of baby birds chirping for their mom to bring them some food.
Encouraging to see the apples set. Also encouraging is to wrap up our planting duties. We’ve got several rows of new trees in the ground and are glad for the recent rains that will help them get a good start.
April Update:
Woohoo! Beautiful blossoms. Not too early, which is awesome. Bees are busy as are we š
We’ve planted 200+ new trees this spring. Think you will like these varieties. Good to see the growing season underway. Bushels and bushels of apples in the making!
March update: We are full on into planning some new surprises for you this fall. And, we are into spring cleaning – a lot of pruning going on!
That’s Barb with a hydraulic trimmer powered by the International we bought back in ’83.
The trees don’t look like much without their leaves, but trust us . . . if we can prune them so the fruit gets lots of sun, we’ll see a great crop
What’s this? Alex went a bit heavy-handed with the pruning? No. This is us removing some trees that haven’t been performing well and we’ll be replacing them soon. The new trees should beĀ arriving any day now. Anyone want to help plant some trees?Ā
We can’t wait to see what the bloom looks like this spring and will be sure to share that with you here
