Saskatoons

I almost forgot about our Saskatoon orchard experience...let's start by saying this; one long time customer of the previous owner was so put off by the state of the orchard she wouldn't even pick them.  To say they were overgrown would be an understatement....sadly when left un-pruned the bushes went wild and grew and grew....unfortunately when something puts that much energy into growing there is not much left for producing fruit and our bushes were terribly sparse with it.....We have a few containers of berries  and they are very tasty in our fruit smoothies..... on the upside we have the winter to plan our strategy for cleaning up the orchard....
