Alandra thankyou for looking. Our Apples are very tasty, but then We are biased. Late frosts have done alot of damage, but with thinning the undamaged fruit can grow large and juicy.

interesting photo and lovely apple blossoms. I agree, we also enjoy the wonderful NZ apples that we are able to buy here in Canada too : )

Thankyou Tania for your comment. Most sprays are user friendly. It's only the occasional insecticide spray that makes it different to Organic Orcharding.

I realy like this phot of Mike spraying the trees. Glad is was just water. I would not like to be so close to the chemicals being sprayed lol

Thankyou Donwrob and Jas for looking and leaving a comment. This was a dummy run, for the photo, so didn't have his helmet on. Looks like an Astronaut when all geared up. Yes our apples are very tasty. Thankyou.

I agree with Lorraine and Don and am glad to see that Mike was well covered while he was working.

Neat capture. You folks do grow some tasty apples down that way. Nice composition with the pretty blossoms. Don

Thankyou Lorraine, We hope for great weather, and a fantastic crop, if the bees do their pollination right.
