Ripenings


Our trees give us weekly reminders that the seasons are marching
along.  This week the Shiro plums are ripening, when they turn
from chartreuse to gold, they are dripping with flavor.

That means the apples are not far behind.  By far the best tasting
apple trees we have are not the ones we, or the previous owner
planted, they're the ones sprouted by chance from the wildly
cross-pollinated seeds in our scattered apple cores.
