My mature (about 4 years old) and my Baby (just a year) Cherry trees are both LOADED with fruit this season. I will be netting them for sure.
Apples are looking good, though the last wind storm we had actually pushed them East a bit! I figured that out when I was mowing the other day - suddenly couldn’t get under the Wolf River when it wasn’t a problem a week before - and it’s not heavy with fruit, yet. None of them were uprooted at all - just cosmetically they look kinda dumb, LOL! But, ya know, *I* lean a little more to the East than I used to, too! ;)
Miss Peach Tree isn’t doing much this year - she totally exhausted herself last season. I think neighbor Lisa, her daughter and I had to have picked 5, 5-gallon buckets worth of peaches from just the one tree!

Found this article a while ago. It’s from 2018 but still timely. I’m not the hugest Prepper on the planet, but I DO like to be prepared for bad weather as I live in Snow Country and Tornado Country. My Dad was quite the Prepper, though. Learned a lot from him and my Depression-Era Grandparents; both sets! I’m ALWAYS worried about economic collapse due to our STUPID government spending and I’ve always been one to stretch a buck! ;)
