Looks good.
This year we have a little more rain than last year, but still not enough, our avocado tree has few but they are pretty small and dropping to the ground everyday.
We have a couple tomato plants, none has any tomato at all.

Cider? Apple sauce? Deer or bear food depending. My mother would put up qts of apple sauce in qt wax milk cartons that were loaded into the deep freezer. Spent many hours cranking a Foley food mill

Let me know when the crostata is ready; I will bring the gelato and espresso!

Very nice. Ive not looked at the local apple crop yet, but the peaches this year (yellow and white) have been amazing. If the apples are too, Ill be so happy. Nothing better than a large, cold, juicy golden delicious.
Nice crop! Do they sell well roadside? Perhaps kid to sell them for you?
I'd dehydrate a bunch of those for winter pies. I even eat them dehydrated as a snack.

Fuji and Honeycrisp are my two favorite eating apples as of late. Have you tried growing Honeycrisp?

We'll make some apple preserves and do some canning. Quite a few will be given away, and of course, we'll make a couple carboys of apple wine. The branches are so loaded that they're touching the ground all around the trees.

I've thought about putting in a couple Honeycrisp trees. When we planted them Honeycrisp trees were not yet available on the retail market. We have three apple and two cherry trees-I'm not sure if I could justify another apple tree, but the thought is in the back of my mind.
