    2018 : Raspberry Patch

    Last year we started the Raspberry Patch with some off shoots from the Father-in-law. They are “pink” and were great in that we got some good pickings during the first year. Getting the Raspberry Trellises installed this year will spruce up the yard and help keep the deer at bay. We’ll also be expanding with some “red” raspberries from our neighbors and some “black” raspberries we ordered that should be arriving next week.

    2018 : Blueberry Patch

    I kind of neglected the Blueberry Bushes last year. We saw some decent leaf growth but the plants themselves were often cropped on by deer and I also think they were a bit “shocked” during the initial planting. Certainly didn’t help that I never got around to covering them for the winter and the last winter storm caused some breakage. Live, Learn and do better. We’ll start 2018 by straightening up the patch and getting some proper low profile fencing up to let them thrive.
