A survey of the fruit on the Green Man Micro Homestead (just made that up! maybe a bit overstated?):
- Concord grapes. This will be the third year of grape harvest. The first harvest was great. The second, not so much, probably due to 1. too much rain and 2. not enough pruning.
- Strawberries. We’ve scaled up the strawberries this year, using a milk crate vertical growing method that allows for many more plants than we’ve had in the past.
- Serviceberries. New this year. Two of the three trees are now planted. We may get a bit of fruit this year from the two larger trees but I don’t imagine it’ll be a lot.
- Gooseberries. This little guy struggled in the front yard for the first two years of his life. Rachel moved him to the back and he seems much happier. Still, it might take another year or two for there to be any harvest.
