Apple Luscious Organic Orchard.

1)  Harry standing near a big   thistle.  Great soil builder in this wild (unmowed) orchard.

2)  The record snow storm of Christmas 96.   Snowfall of 31 inches on picnic table

3)  A truck load of Neptunes gold.  Seaweed is the best fertilizer.

4)  My best apple testers are a pair of pileated woodpeckers. They always chose the best varieties.

5)  Spiders are an important part of the orchard ecosystem.

6)  This is a truck load of horse manure.

7)  Oyster shell (spread under this young Empire ) is a great addition to the orchard soil.
