Here's What We've Been Up To....

Day 1: Apricots


Day 2: Cherries





It was fun learning to can and I'm excited to have so much food just in my backyard. We've got 2 cherry trees, 1 apricot tree, 2 plum trees, purple concord grapes, 2 apple trees and just a small garden this year because we didn't get here in time to do a big one...
