Fruit Production

We have harvested all of the fruit crop except our blackberries. They will be producing for quite a bit of time yet. Our grapes look good and are getting bigger. Our strawberries are starting to bloom for the next round. I have spent the week catching up with other chores after our massive canning sessions last week when a bunch of the fruit came on at once. Now, I am enjoying the quick break before my tomatoes start coming on. Today, I harvested my first cherry tomatoes and boy did they taste great. The bird netting seemed to work in protecting our crops from the birds. Even with all the work last week, growing fruit can be very rewarding. It tends to be more expensive and it cannot be beat eating it fresh off the vine. Hopefully, if you are not growing fruit currently you will give it a try.
