Fruit Trees

Even with the battle with the deer, a couple of our trees are actually producing fruit! One peach tree and one apricot tree, to be specific.

I covered the fruit with seedling netting I saved from the garden center hoping it will keep the bugs off and other creatures out. 

Some fruit fell off the trees. I wonder if they'll ripen on the counter. That little guy on the left is an onion from our garden.

I finally got to the mulch stage around the orchard. The deer fences around each tree makes it more time consuming because I have to fill pails instead of the cart.

It does allow for precise placement!
