there is a lot of things impressive about this video. But most of all was when Laura lifted that tree by herself at 14.25. I was wide eyed thinking he will hurt her back. You go, Laura!! You strong woman!!
i hop you guy are safe and got everything you need i see you are havest all the fruit from all the tree before the storm hit you guy take care
South Carolina is a large producer of peaches. I drive past the orchards often. It appears as though they cut the main leader and prune heavily while dormant. Photos may be available for you to view online. Edgefield, SC

You've had such interesting weather this year. Have you considered getting a home weather station? It's great to know actual rainfall for your property, wind speed, high and low temps… I think it would be an interesting addition to the property! Also my kids like seeing it and playing with the display lol
Thank you Laura for the educational video ✍️ SO many information that I learned today especially about the fruit trees 🌳
Could you please tell us what weather app you use? I love that you get so much great detail from whatever source you're using!
Have you considered socking your apples? It’s a common practice for organic gardening up here in Washington. Basically you buy a box of nylon orchard socks and wrap one around each apple that you want to harvest. Admittedly, it works better on smaller harvests and apple trees.
Well done Laura. Glad Hurricane Hillary didn’t cause any damage. Do you have any footage or pics of Bethany’s pigs feasting on the fruit? No waste 😀😀
Nectarines ..SO YUMMY. Gorgeous nectarines and peach trees. Apples ..so we buy apples in the store that have ben sprayed every two weeks ? with non organic spray ? Gross !
Do you have to spray the nectarines and peach trees?
Maybe Install some birdhouses in the orchard? The presence of birds can help mitigate the worms on the apples. 🪱🐦
Nectarine, jalafuego and onion chutney!
I was wondering if you have any problem with stink bugs. Im having a hard time with them
Laura, don't let thinning and removing fruit. That is part of farming. It needs to be done, and it is not a waste. I remember growing up around apple orchards. They staked branches. Enjoy your day.
👀 I can’t believe my eye. You picked up and moved that tree. Wow!
You are a strong women, picking up that Burch tree and placing it on the gator like it’s nothing 😮. Have you ever thought , oh I shouldn’t have done that later in the day! Back pain???
Those fruit trees are happy camper and those pigs probably think they’ve it the jackpot. I’ve got to see if our nursery carries that Birch tree variety. I’ve got the perfect spot for one if I can talk my hubby into the idea.
You should get a golf ball rolling retriever. I wonder if it would work on the fruit that's fallen on the ground. A lot easier to pick them up maybe.
I hope you and your family get to enjoy some of the fruit
I just love to see you work taking care of your trees, flowers, shrubs, grass, vegetables, chickens, etc., etc., etc. and so tickled for Bethany’s pigs. Just imagining what a treat they will be getting!
Como buraco água terra ainda 😢..
Frutos ameixa panela. Um quilo açucar cristal fervendo uma hora. para o pão🍞 geléia ameixa 👍😉
I can see this trees taking a deep breath 😍
I have never eaten nectarine and peach. I want one 🥹
You can take 2x4s to prop up limbs.The Honey Crisp got the worms probably because the sugar content is higher.
Amazing fruit!!
What do you do with all that extra fruit?
Love LOVE the orchard!! My elberta peach 🍑, second season grew 300 peaches this year. Thinning was the hardest thing to do … I took off 100 of them early on, glad I did. Now it's a bounty beyond belief – they are a gorgeous orange and ripening quickly. There's been some drop (not sure why, no bugs, blemish free!) but I bring them in and they continue to ripen – SO DELICIOUS! I know the crop went happily to the pigs, but do you ever keep & let ripen on the late summer thinning?
Yahoo for the pigs, what a treat😂
Amazing to watch the tree revive with the weight off it! Well done Laura!
Laura, protein for the pigs with the worms…So Enjoyed your video, as Always! 🍎🍊😊🙌
Sad to lost all that fruit.
Would you ever give any of that fruit to your chickens? Not sure whether they'd be impressed or not – or if there are reasons to not feed fruit to chickens…?
Field trip to see the pigs would be fun
I had an orchard and found a way to control coddling moth worms in apples without spraying. I followed the advice of famous Tasmanian organic gardener, Peter Cundall. Put a deep mulch of old hay around the base out to the drip line. It creates a bio life of critters that eat the worms over wintering in the ground. It also feeds the tree and gets rid of grass competition. I had the biggest tastiest plums, nectarines and apples after I adopted this method. Good luck.
How much fruit from this harvest did you get to eat? Or did it all go to the pigs?
