Lovely bloom there, Benny!

When frost is imminent, a week before the first frost, contact me, and I'll show you a minor improvement on what to do so that you'll get your fruits intact over the winter and hopefully ripen in the early summer next year.

Ha-ha. Thanks Millet.
I am enjoying and my 3 sons fresh homemade apple pies and apple sauce with vanilla ice cream on top for dessert .
There's nothing better than home made apple pies and crusts too.

I wish I knew how to make apple cider.
