As I've mentioned before, I've always wanted my own garden and when we bought this property we still hadn't realized just how valuable it was...with all of it's mature fruit trees etc. We are overwhelmed most of the time but it's worth it. We take great pleasure in watching our children help themselves to a fruit fresh off the tree or vine. <BR/>Also, this is really my first year to preserve anything and I'm loving it. I have great resources available to assist me in my learning.

It's a lot of work though! <BR/>I think that your tree probably doesn't have fruit because it's so young. Our cherry tree is pretty small(young) and we really didn't get too much from it. We also have young walnut trees that haven't produced either.Cherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07147148590536843781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6574444945294114193.post-69267446199779144092008-08-09T19:53:00.000+03:002008-08-09T19:53:00.000+03:00i am so jealous of your garden and fruit trees! t...i am so jealous of your garden and fruit trees! those peaches look sooooo gooooood. ours have hardly grown (possibly because it's only the second year? i wasn't even expecting fruit this year).mamafitzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00532203067920083845noreply@blogger.com
