Tomorrow we are planning on a visit from Jamie, Linnaeus' papa, who will be pruning our apple trees.
It has been a long time since we pressed cider, but there is still some to share as we look forward to another year of growth!
The children may help by throwing the pruned branches over the fence into the sheep pasture. The sheep like to nibble the sweet bark. Later we will carry the branches to the brush pile for burning.
Welcome Spring!

Wish that I could be there to help prune those beautiful apple trees. I can already envision the blossoms starring the trees.
I'll keep checking back on you.
