November butterflies & moths / Tachwedd glöynnod byw a gwyfynod: Winter ‘blets’ the remaining medlars as the apple harvest closes. While many butterflies & moths spend the colder months as caterpillars, some are flying, looking for a quiet corner to rest! 🦋

Visiting old orchards on livestock farms raises 2 points.
1. the importance of regulating water uptake: long dry periods cause fruit skin to lose elasticity so sudden rain causes splitting.
2. the desire for new skills: here bud grafting maintains future generations & makes fruit easier to pick!

WISDOM IN THE TREES / DOETHINEB YN Y COED - tree wisdom & etymology from Dr Cymraeg. And remember folks, go water any trees planted in the last 3 years. Water early morning or late evening so it soaks down to the lower roots before the sun evaporates it away! ☔️ 🌧️💦🌳🌳🌳 #Dwr #Water #WaterYourTrees

SPRING PRUNING / TOCIO YN Y GWANWYN: it’s too early here for the ‘June Prune’ of established plums but we do prune young stone fruit in April & May if we have a warm dry spell.
Travelling to Welsh farms for the Farming Connect has been a reminder that it’s not all apples here! 😅🍎🍈🫐🍐
