I cannot seem to stop... New early ripening apples planted today. Summer Rambo trees (ripe in August)--A French Apple grown since the 1500's in Europe and ranked as the best tasting apple in the world the past 200 years. There will be a new full row low on the hill of only EARLY ripening apples. All will be Heirloom but all ripe early. I want to make cider and apple butter in June-July-August...

Fire blight control with my #1 orchard helper. I reacted instead of "proacting"... Next season I will do better. Worst ever fire blight (bacterial infection) here--probably due to rain humidity and too warm spring weather.

Annual May 10th apple progress update.  Trees look superb this spring.  Weeks ahead of a typical year.

Yet more chicken related circus... We made it happen although I was consistently supervised and directed by the job boss Patricia. Remember it was an eight year old audio/video tech (apprentice in training) on the camera.. LOL

These are our "off grid" apple tools. No power--no issues these will be pulled out of the shed. The Bonanza (apple peeler corer) made in New Hampshire by the Goodell Company is a hundred and fifty years old and it's awesome. Probably made in the 1870's or earlier. These are hard to find complete with all parts and in good shape after 150+ years. LIKE..! Lucky to have found this Bonanza..!
