Today's Harvest
« on: May 28, 2015, 09:20:40 PM »
From top left to bottom right,  Manzano banana, San Felipe, ST Maui, Glenn (too many to picture), Haden Maha Chinok, Coconut Cream, Dupios x 2, and Sweet Tart.



It has been 2.5 years since I walked away from my 30 mature fruit trees to start fresh on 2.5 acres. Finally starting to see some real rewards for my labor.

Awesome!!! Great place you have. I have enjoyed the Glens you have given me very much.  I am sure all those others are just as good.  Just missing some jackfruit  :P ;D  Checking the tree this weekend but doubt any will be ready.
