Too many ticks and chiggers to walk through some parts of the NH Jungle, so I took a stroll from inside the pickup truck to see what all was growing right now.

Our Blackberries are still several days from being ripe, but looking good for the long haul...

Steve...You got it going on in a GOOD way brother!!! I need you to visit the Triple C and put a fruit producing dance on my pears. I got more than any year in the past but nothing to what you've posted on your property thread. I'm good on the persimmons but mother nature still seems to take good care of those. Covered up in blackberries. Expect to have apples in another year or so from the grafts The LLC did for me 2 years ago, still looking for my 1st sawtooth acorn and my 1st chestnut. You've got more going on on that tract than most have on tracts 3 or 4 times the size. Good stuff!!!

Thanks TC. For most things I think time takes care of everything. I've had apples and chestnuts now for many years, and I can still remember the lean years and how hard that waiting was. I also remember how that it looked for a while like I was not going to get any sawtooth acorns, and then BOOM - had a banner years and good since then. I think if we start out with the right varieties that there will be ups and downs, but time is our best friend!
 
Wow! I'm new here, but I'm assuming this all is the fruit of a lot of hard work, literally.
 
Meanwhile for those of us not in Eden. And something already eating on one. 2nd yr planting so I plucked off the 6 apples. The Golden are loaded to breaking point. Blackberries loaded too but I’ll never see one thanks to the bear.
I wasn’t too afraid to walk thru my weeds!!Driving? Suck it up buttercup. Lol. Your Place looks great as usual.
