We also grow Crandall currants; elderberries and gooseberries are of unknown varieties. A few black raspberries grow in our fence lines. I give the birds credit for seeding them.

There are many small fruits in the list we grow. We are expanding that list every year to include such fruits as currants, blueberries, seedless grapes and plums. Watch for those additions in the coming months. But the focus of our fruits still centers on the spring strawberry crop. Here are a few of our strawberry growing practices:

We use a matted row system for growing strawberries because it has performed best for us. we spread rows 7' apart at planting. Shredded newspaper serves as a mulch. this level is a little thick and should be raked mostly off in end of March.

      

Strawberries need water once they bloom in order to produce well. Nothing beats hand cultivation and weeding...especially when you have plenty of hands.

           

Strawberries are my favorite fruit. There is nothing to compare to a fresh berry.

We will usually grow 3 to 5 varieties- All are good but there are better varieties for different purposes.

 

   Other fruits don't get photographed as much but deserve a lot of attention as the summer approaches because our strawberries are finished picking by  the forth of July. Below are some of those worth mentioning:                   

We have been growing a small blueberry patch for years. Recently we planted a few more so we can offer them to others. They not only taste great but are high in antioxidants.

I had to show our berry patch to direct your eyes to the blooming apple trees in the background.
