Replacement fruit trees purchased

Today we purchased our replacement fruit trees. If you recall... we planted these trees 2 years ago. They were just due to fruit nicely this year but... also as you may recall, they were... well... eaten. The horses took down the worm fence and the sheep followed. Soon half the trees were eaten down to the dirt.

So today we got replcements from shooting star nursery. We also are adding some raspberries, boysenberries, and blackberries.

The trees are:
Apricot
Apple
Plum
Peach
Cherry
Pomagranet

Yum!

They are scheduled to be planted on Friday afternoon.

Our goal is to use these fruits to enhance our current products (flavored yogurt, kefir, kombucha, chocolate) and if there is any leftover sell as preserves.
