I have decided to try and improve the hunting on my parents place and also, add some decent human food as well.
I have done my homework and just ordered the following from Millers, Boyers and St. Lawrence.
1 Freedom-Ripens October
1 Liberty-Ripens September
1 Enterprise-Ripens Early October
1 GoldRush- Ripens Late September
2 Northern Spy-Ripens Late October through December
2 Winter Crab
1 Chestnut Crab
Peach
2 Finger Lake Peach Tree-Mid to late September
Pear Trees
1 Seckel Standard-Ripens early September
3 Keifer Semi Dwarf- Prob july/august.
2 Collete Everbearing Standard Pear- Produces new fruit from the end of August until first frost
and 6 Chestnut Trees. I do love roasted chestnuts.
I can;t wait till they are delivered in the Spring. So I guess in about 5-6 years I should have a nice orchard to hunt over.
Any tips to help them produce quicker?
Think I am missing apple specific trees? The Winter Crab are to hold apple well into the winter
