Apple trees




Even though I live in the desert, up in our local mountains, just 30 minutes away, are apple ranches. They are in full bloom now. This apple farmer sells his organic apples to a company in nearby Julian. It is right next to where I board my horses, but the horses never get any of his apples! No, no! But, we do admire the trees from afar.

Your post reminded me of when I was a young girl and went scrumping apples in a local orchard- the farmer chased us up the road, but we did get one or two -they were delicious! I told my Mum when I got home and was grounded! Never did it again. Can you not buy some from that farmer?
