Grafted 30 apples this spring. Was able to trade scion wood with some plebs to add new varieties to the collection. Got over 50 varieties so far and hoping for the first good fruit set on the oldest trees this year. Growing orchards from bench grafts is definitely low time preference.

Newly grafted apple trees starting to leaf out!

Grafted 30 apple trees this spring and so far 20 of the 30 are pushing out leaves. The big challenge is keeping them alive through the heat of the summer.

The strawberries in the understory are coming in nicely as well. They help to compete with the grass but not with the apples making for less weeding all while giving us a yeild of strawberries too.

Strawberry harvest in the apple tree nursery has begun!

Strawberries are planted as the ground cover in the apple tree nursery. The strawberries help compete with the grass which reduces the weeding necessary to keep the young trees thriving. All while yielding strawberries from the same space.

I put some in the Bitcoin mining dehydrator while to test out how long they take with minimal processing. Not sure if it will work well. Fafo...
