Urban Farming

We got a bit more rain the other night and it now seems that I've got too many apples and not enough tree. Possibly a by-product of the thinning of the tree last fall. Last night a limb came down, about 3 in in diameter and 8-9 ft long. I weighed the loose apples I cleaned up off the ground and estimated the ones still on the downed branches.

It looks like I'm tossing about 75 lbs of apples from the one broken branch.

The rest of the tree is still loaded. Anyone got a cider press?

Bring them to RR2 Dahlgren, IL when they are ripe and we will have a cider party!
