Hope you enjoy these photos of around our orchard.
Not much to say about the last harvest except that I am glad that it is finished, very hot and dry year.
With periods of intense wildlife. Water supplies are very low large areas of the country are still crying out for good rain. Wishing those in the Northern Hemisphere, who will soon be harvesting fruit, the best of luck.
Best wishes to all.
