THE FARM

[SWIFFY]

Boones Farm, I like it. Looks like a great place!

Took the weedwacker out to farm and trimmed around all apple and spruce trees. Seen 1 fawn and 2 four yr old apple trees have apples forming. Winter rye/ clover is growing well.

A lot of clover in the wr. Should I just let the wr die on it's own? Soybeans are a few inches, planted 6 days ago.

Watering trees and put in new pool today.

Chesnut Crabapple is looking good.

My Chestnut Crab that was doing good now looks like this. What do you think caused it?

The 2nd pic looks like one of the new growth stems is snapped off. Sometimes birds of one kind or another snip off young growth from various plants to line nests with. We used to have our tomato ends snipped off by birds. Does the rest of the tree look OK ?? From the pix it looks as thought the existing older leaves and twigs look healthy.

Our camp apple trees have had some aphids get on the very newest growth and they ended up curling from the sap getting sucked out of them, but it didn't hurt the tree overall.

Plots are looking good.

Man I love those long narrow strips. Nothing says walk this way quite like one.
