I think it was the perfect summer on the coast. We even had enough sun to grow some fruit! Over the last couple of years, Adam has planted several trees. I admit, I haven't been as "on board" with this investment as I could have, especially since many of the trees we purchased were already starting to mature. I think we have somewhere between 13 and 15 trees...and they are all different. We've got plums, pears, cherries, nectarines, apricots, and various apples. I know that a few have died, but not sure which ones. This year we were able to harvest a few from about 1/2 of the trees. I think the most exciting harvest was the nectarines! I would have never thought we could grow them in this climate!

Yummy Nectarines!
The next 3 photos are from picking the old apple tree in front of our house. It was LOADED this year!!
Here's a view of 1/2 our mini orchard/grove. The kids are watering in their undies. Guess they were hot that day... :)
