June - 1st week


The beginning of a small orchard reside in these pots... a wedding present. These are all apple trees. We'll be adding peach and cherry too. We've also planted the beginning of our berry patch, 100 strawberry plants and 20 raspberries. The strawberries will bear next year and the raspberries will begin next year but really come in to fruit in the second year. This is what they look like as bare root starts... not much to begin with, but the investment, ooh, makes me think of all kinds of recipes. Strawberry shortcake, raspberry crumble, apple pie, homemade apple sauce. MMMM!
