Gardening For Frugality and Health


Walkway to the garden, chicken coop, barn, and orchard



Blanding soil is good for raising potatoes and pole beans
 and provided enough produce for a family of 10 to enjoy 'til the following spring.



There are two pear trees, two apricot trees, two peach trees, three apple trees, several plum trees, and large sweet cherry tree (in the front yard).  There is also a large grape arbor with several varieties of grapes.  By taking care of the fruit, there's a big pay off at harvest time.




The raspberries produce later in the summer for about a month. 

But they produced lots of delicious jam.

Golden Delicious tree produces lots of fruit in the fall.

The orchard was also used for hosting Water Rock Activities
