I have several baby #watermelons now 👩‍🌾
These are a few of my unripe sugar baby watermelons 😀💦🍉
I do a lot of hand pollination with watermelons. They need extra pollinating help.

Eating half a soursop fruit yielded several seeds that I'll be trying to grow 👩‍🌾

Mom & I picked our first homegrown #strawberries of 2026. Missing from photo are the 22 fruits we ate in yard, while picking them 🍓 They're really sweet & delicious. These are our native strawberries. Our June everbearing ones are about 2-3 times the size of these smaller, native strawberries. The native strawberries are smaller but their taste is much sweeter.

Some of my June everbearing #strawberries, growing out of a pavement crack.

Got my nephew down for a nap after going for some playground fun nearby.

I've sowed some of the Early Canadian watermelon & Haley's Best cantaloupe sprouts 👩‍🌾💚

It's a wonderful time of year to visit #WellandCommunityOrchard 🌸💚🌸
Hundreds of trees are blossoming, right now. Lots of wildflowers & other pollinator flowers are out. Lots of berry plants are developing new fruits.

Our backyard apple tree is in full bloom now 💗
I don't know what kind of apple tree it is but it produces very large, juicy apples. The taste is sweet with a bit of tartness.

We've added two wooden/wicker chairs by lower raised garden beds & near our berries grow zone. A lovely spot to take a rest break.

One of our heirloom, red fleshed, apple tree blossoms. I'll update with the name of this cultivar soon - forgot it (we have over 125 heirloom apple trees at Welland).

Tons of baby #strawberries are forming. Strawberries are our biggest fruit crop. We grow them in back/front/side yards & have lots in various pots all around our deck/yard/patio. We grow thousands of strawberries! Several different types are growing together.

I had only 6 #watermelon #seeds left. Sowed them all into 2 pots. I'll be happy if any of them sprout & provide me with some small watermelons this Summer. I've successfully grown some melons here before but am still not too great at it. I keep trying to improve my melon growing here. I do better with cantaloupe.

Our community learning workshops are fun, affordable (we have sliding scale available), in a beautiful orchard setting.
Many folks end up making new, local, like-minded friends through participating in our various workshops at Welland 😊
