These are photos of our granny smith apple tree blossoms from last spring. It won't be long before the warm sun will bring new blooms again. Today Steve and I worked for several hours pruning all our fruit trees. Our Jonagold trees in Jim's yard were the worst. They haven't been pruned in 10 years or so, much needed cutting took place and as we left the trees you could almost hear a sigh of relief. They certainly looked taller too.
So, inventory, we have two granny smith trees, two Jonagold, two pear, two Alberta Peach, one mission fig an olive tree and three areas with grapevines. Defintiely enough to keep us hopping! Now we have a nice big pile of apple wood for smoking. Bring on the pork butt!
