    Hope yours produce as much as mine has. It, along with my apple tree, are getting on in years. I think it may be time to start a cutting.

    BP looks like we are supposed to get frost warnings tonight! Hope your trees and all the veggies I just planted make it. I won't be a happy camper if I have to go out and buy plants to replace all the ones I just grew from seed.
    I apologize for nothing...

    When I get my cookbooks unpacked (from kitchen reno) I think there is a recipe I have that you can make pear sauce, like applesauce or pear soup that you can use as a base for other dishes, desserts mostly..

    I didn't get to watch the news tonight but since we didn't get frost this morning, I'm bettin we will in the morning. I just hope it's not a hard one. Our biueberries and cherries are kickin ass. Potato's are up and doing good, but still tender.

    Too much and too large to cover it all. I do need to build me some type of frame work and vet some huge tarps to cover the blueberries with till they get larger.

    Check out a company called Grower's Supply. They sell to commercial growers and have really good deals on a variety of covers.
