That’s awesome, lemme know if you need a different crop or higher resolution! 😊

It’s a constant struggle over here but I love them so much…trying to peacefully coexist. 🤎🦌

Thank you! I’m shooting for Garden of Eden so “Heavenly” is a great compliment! I’d like this little one-acre to be like the Willie Wonka Factory of forest gardening…where everything you can see and touch is edible.

And I suppose Spicebush and Hazelnuts are also considered fruits so add those to the list, too. I’d say that I don’t have room for even one more, but of course I’d be wrong.

So far the fruit I’m growing here includes: Mulberry, Persimmon, Aronia/Chokeberry, Elderberry, Black Currant, Red Current, Honeyberry, Red Raspberry, Blackberries, Riverbank Grape, Fox Grape, Gooseberry, Goji Berry, and Highbush Cranberry.

Mulberry trees have deep, water-seeking roots, so I’m guessing that they’ll break through the clay easily enough to take advantage of our low water table here at the lake.

Well I thank you because now I don't have to do it! 😀

Oh, lol, I don’t know if I need two! I should probably read up! I accidentally planted a riverbank grape along a path and it’s taking off so now I’m on the lookout for a cattle panel for them to climb up.

Nice score on the sewing baskets! A little fancier than a blue cookie tin! 🤣 Beautiful, arrangement, too. 🩷💚

I can almost taste the Niagara grapes just thinking about it (and remembering the hangover that followed). #LakeNiagara #FLXwines #FingerLakesWine #FoxGrape #VitisLabrusca
