I grow many low-care fruits. My orchard is filled with varieties developed by Ukrainian plant breeders, some of the best low-care fruit for temperate areas around the world.
I'm so grateful for the dedication and expertise of these scientists and for the gifts they have shared with us all.

Bare-root June-bearing strawberries waiting to be added to a large quantity of established ever-bearing plants. Not a super exciting picture, but I'm interested to see how they do in direct comparison! 🍓

Color additions to my "Spring Threw Up"
blanket. I picked up teals. However, they are reading a bit more blue in the picture. I'm hesitant to add a bright yellow for some reason....maybe a pale yellow; taking suggestions!

I have this fantastic ladder that has been in the family a few generations that I'm looking to use as a trellis in the garden. I've searched for a few ideas, but if anyone has a specific idea they'd like to share, I'd love to hear it! 💜
