The Orchard
The orchard is certified organic and consists of 313 peach trees, 58 apricots, 52 pears, 48 cherries, 22 apples and 2 plumb trees. Plus a large patch of raspberries with some black berries next to the house and barn. There are also two grape vines. The soil type is sandy loam and can easily be dug to a depth of 6' with out much effort. The fruit trees do not need to be irrigated, due to the high watter table, with the exception of new young trees. The total area that the orchard covers is approximately 9 acres.
