Around the Orchard – Fall

by 3 Comments

Now that winter’s been here for almost a month, I thought it’d be fun to share what happened around our little homestead in the fall!

Not much has happened so far this winter. I’m behind on trimming my lemon tree and hope to get to that next week.

I’m considering planting one or two new fruit trees and deciding what to plant is proving to be challenging. There are so many options, an avocado tree is on the top of my list!

In the meantime, enjoy the photos! View the pictures →

My First Garden!

by 2 Comments

Before leaving for Germany I was able to get my first garden planted! I’m so excited I finally have a garden! Spring was busy with bees, and working to keep the fruit trees healthy. I decided to not start to many projects at one time, and thought it would be better to wait until fall to try growing some veggies. Here are a few photos of the work in progress! View the pictures →

I’ve been sporadically snapping photos of what’s been happening in the orchard during the past couple months. Hope these inspire you to get outside today and enjoy the last day of summer! View the pictures →
