Bare Roots & Fruits

Yes it's still January and most people aren't thinking about spring planting yet, but we're getting excited to get things growing.  We've already staked and mulched the locations for our fruit trees a couple months ago, and now it's time to get the planting done.  We've decided on adding peach, cherry, plum, pear, apricot, and almond trees this year.  We'll also be putting in blueberry, raspberry, and strawberry patches as well as a nice big vegetable garden.

Blueberry and Fruit Tree Plots

For now we'll focus on the fruit trees though because this winter dormant period is the time to pickup bare root trees and plant them.  Bare root trees are less expensive and easy to start.   Hopefully the rain slows down enough this weekend to give us that chance to get them into the ground for a successful start.  I'm sure we'll have pics and another update on our busy weekend, we always have more going on than time to blog about it!  :)
