Well the good news is we did get an Apple crop. The bad news is the apples were not the best of quality. There was a fair amount of insect / disease / cold weather damage. These five apple were better than most.
Picked and ready to process.
Last batch waiting to be processed later this week.
This is our food dehydrator. It does a great job dehydrating fruits and vegetables. Notice that it has 10 stackable trays.
Here is one of the stackable trays with apple slices dehydrating.
Apple chips nearly ready for storage.
This will be the next crop we will pick and process. Maybe later this week or the beginning of next week.
This is what a nice bunch of grapes looks like. Although they all tend to start out this way many unfortunately don't end up looking like this. Between the birds, squirrels, and raccoons we loose a lot of the best fruit to the wildlife.
Some get away with it.
SOME DO NOT and GET A TRIP TO THE COUNTRY
This guy is waiting for transportation. Heading out to "the summer home" to spend time with the first two that took the trip earlier in the week. Three trapped this year 4 trapped last year.
This how I found him early in the morning. Just lounging around waiting for someone to show up. Although they might look cute and friendly they are NOT.
This guy just charged me as I approached. Snarling, growling and baring his teeth. NOT friendly NOT friendly at all.
