A little more fall crops color.

Colorful .... and yet somewhat ugly. I heard the term "wart" something to describe one of these. You decide. Although once between two layers of pie crust I would use the term "yummy".

Evidence that the end of summer approaches. Fall is just around the corner.

Fresh sliced and ready to eat. Big Boy.

The grapes are turning and offer individual juicy treats for those passing by.

The plum crop was small this year but better than we had anticipated. This 8 lbs. was shared with friend and made into jam.

Capture and convicted. Sentenced to transfer to National Forest. Moved down the food chain.

GUILTY!

Found guilty of stealing the 2010 grape crop. Sentenced to death. Commuted to life in the National Forest.

The 2009 harvest continues.... Trannies.

This year is the first good harvest we have had from the Transparent apple tree. This year we had enough for a few eating apples, enough for dehydrated slices and enough for one great apple pie. The tree is 6 years old.

Mid summer. Time to start the harvesting of the 2009 crops.

My favorite green thumb owner harvesting this year's cherry crop.

Fall Harvest 2008

Apples and grapes just before harvest. Notice the single bunch of grapes in the upper left. And your eyes are not fooling you there is netting covering the grapes. The yard birds love the grapes. Last year a family of Cardinals wiped out the crop before we could get our share. Not this year.
