blossom time

Most of the trees in the orchard went from pink
flower buds to full bloom in the last two days,
thanks to July weather in May. There were pollinators
buzzing around - our trusty bumblebees and lots of
tiny bees and pollinating wasps and flies. There are
also a ton of ladybugs, a very good sign for keeping
aphids in check. All in all, a fantastically
beautiful day in the orchard.
