Our fruit trees are beginning to bud also. We planted them in 2010 and 2011. The extreme drought killed on of the apple trees.
Last year we did have peaches that started to grow, but they were so stunted, that we decided to pull them off, and allow the tree to regain it’s vigor from the drought.
We are hoping to get some fruit from the trees this year.
I got a little bit done this weekend. Planted some potatoes, a bit of kale, lettuce, broccoli, cauliflower and brussels sprouts.
Potted a few perennial herbs that I haven't picked a spot for in the ground
Burned off the thatch around the orchard trees on the far side of the riding arena yesterday morning. Also planted one jonathan apple tree that I bought at Lowe's on Friday.
Need to get another load of horse poo, but the rain last night has kaboshed that until the ground dries up a bit.
