Today's loot from the #garden and #edibleforest.

#GrowYourOwn #Food #Fruit

Made sand hill plum #jelly today. The fruit after which this farm is named. It is definitely a farm special! 😄

Did some #canning yesterday. #Mulberry #Preserves

I've already picked 3 lbs. of #mulberries this morning. Hoping to do some #canning today. I think I have enough berries now. Gotta clean kitchen first. If not today, then tomorrow! 😅

Texting with my GF in Misery (MO) and they just got their beef and she is rendering tallow today.

We are both behind the curve and sweating! 😅😆 #Summer has arrived.

Picking black and white #mulberries today. Hoping to make jam/preserves this weekend.

I only got a couple cups of white, the black mulberries are on the bottom.

We only have one white mulberry tree.

I call this one "Rooster in the Thicket".

Having a #ThistleBattle when I noticed some red on what I had thought was a crab apple tree. (Before we purchased this property in 2018, someone brush hogged the front pasture & they didn't realize they mowed over 8 #trees. I've been pruning to save these trees ever since.) Well, it's not a crab apple tree! I think it's just a really stunted full size plum! 🤯 They're quite sweet. Glad I saw a thistle nearby or I would have missed the fruit (it was falling off the tree). #EdibleForest #FruitTrees

Planted 20 silver buffaloberry bushes in our east hedgerow area in with the persimmon trees. #NativePlants #EdibleForest

Making sand hill plum #jelly today. #canning #plums #fruit #edibleforest

Every ripe sand hill plum I accidentally brush off a branch, he is on it instantly! I feel like he is getting some of the best #plums! 😂 #fruit #edibleforest #chickens

I better go pick sand hill plums today! They look like they are getting ripe. I did see the first Japanese beetles over the last couple of days. IT'S A RACE! #edibleforest #fruit

Sand hill (chickasaw) plums in our thickets and hedgerows are getting there! Hopefully they ripen before the Japanese beetles show up! Last year the beetles got to them before we could. 😔 #fruit #nativeplants #edibleforest
