A couple of ladybirds chilling out on a nectarine branch. 🙂#beneficialinsects

The apricots are sizing up nicely 

Black Doris plums growing nicely 

We had a quick road trip up the West Coast earlier this week to recharge the batteries before the job of thinning starts 🙂 Crammed so much in with a lot of laughter along the way. Even Goofy, our car mascot, enjoyed the journey; Goofy has travelled thousands of kilometres with us throughout the years. 

A beautiful day to earth up the early spuds 

The apricots are sizing up nicely and thinning starts in a week 

Got the last of the prunings mulched up today. 🙂 Here’s a wee video of my trusty mulcher in action 🙂
