This years fruit and berry harvest has been great, even though we have had more than our share of critters (deer, rabbits, squirrels) stealing from the garden.
Velda and her friend Huong (who is 4' 10" tall) picked the apples.
To make several apple crisp.
Chris picked seven cups of blackberries from the vines along the trail.
Millena and Velda made a cobbler out of all seven cups. Whoops, Chris wanted to eat some of the berries......
We picked rhubarb which Velda made into her strawberry rhubarb meringue.
We had a bumper crop of peach plums.
And we picked raspberries.... However for some reason they never seem to make it far enough to end up as a dessert. We get in trouble for letting him eat so much fruit but you can't stop him. He loves his fruit. He now helps pick but he doesn't know to only get the ripe ones.
