Signs of Spring

The fruit trees have budded but not flowered yet. Yet, we're into spring weather anyway: partly sunny days, interspersed with clouds, hail, and even snow! My friend Jon came down from Seattle recently, and Nate and I gave him a brief tour of the farm; so many projects, so little time.

Pruning Day!

I managed to make a trip down to the farm in February for a day of pruning. It wasn't exactly raining, though it did mist some. We got out the ladders, and set to work in the main part of the orchard: we're in the midst of a multi-year project to bring the long-neglected orchard back into fruitful production.
