  • There's a few things I need to get done today - some in the veggie patch and a couple of harvest in the kitchen garden. In today's video we are having a look at recent brassica and celery plantings in the vegetable garden and giving a little tlc. I need to check if any raspberries are ready to bring in and the apple tree I know needs to be completely stripped of it's beautiful, big and ripe fruit.
    Check out my cabbage garden bed before it was planted out!!

    I love your berry patch ❤ they are huge, you could almost put pipes over like the trees 😂 i need to learn about berry pruning. I think i was doing something wrong before and not getting much of a harvest.
    The apple tree is just a stunning net of jewels ❤ so beautiful and prolific.

      That apple tree produced virtually nothing last year but a tonne the year before. It will be interesting to see what happens next year. With the raspberries I find autumn fruiting varieties easiest in terms of pruning because once they have died back in winter you prune all the canes to the ground and new fruiting canes grow the next year. There is a lot more mucking around with spring fruiting varieties. The blueberry bushes I really haven't touched at this stage - just taken dead branches out.

      @huttonsvalleypermaculture oooh, i need to look at the heritage one i just picked up. Couldn't go past a nursery which was closing down. Left with a citrus grove, feijoa and heritage raspberry 🤣 Looked like a good place so very sad to see it go.

    I really like eating apples, but where I live, this fruit is not grown. We often have to import it from other places, so sometimes it is very hesitant to buy them if the origin is unknown. I really like looking at your apple tree.

    • @huttonsvalleypermaculture

      Thanks Vicki. Having some hot dry weather now which will change the 'lushness' quite a lot but we'd had fairly mild conditions leading up to the video and harvest. Pleased to have relieved my little tree of its load before this hot spell hit!

    Oh dear I need to get stuff done in the garden like you have been doing but I've had covid plus for the last 2 weeks and have no energy at all. I have pears to collect and weeding. sigh can just look at it at the moment. My raspberries finished a while back. Must be different varieties. =-) Take care =-)

    Newer viewer here.....beautiful apples...is chips All you do with them? I'd be like applesauce, apple cobbler or pie filling, apple butter and apple juice, cider, vinegar and some for fresh eating. Dk how much would be left to share. Maybe you have other varieties you do some of that with?

    • @huttonsvalleypermaculture
      @huttonsvalleypermaculture  11 місяців тому +1

      Hello there and welcome. This year apple chips (my favourite) is all I'll be doing. Other years I've done all sorts of preserving including vinegar and cider. I have heaps of vinegar left, and various apple preserves still sitting in the pantry so I thought it would be lovely to share the bounty and joy with lots of others!!

    What a harvest of beautiful apples!! I grow the low chill variety here in QLD, we get small crops over a long period, I would love my tree's to produce like yours one day, not sure if the low chill ones ever would though. I have found over the years if I grow my brassicas with dill and coriander in the garden I never have to worry about pests and I don't have to use any covers as long as the dill and coriander is up and growing, it's quite amazing! 🌻

      Oh thanks Joanna for that tip with the brassicas- will have to give that a try!
      Yes this tree is pretty amazing! Not sure if it only produces this much every second year - last year didn’t get any but the year before heaps - will have to see over a number of years I suppose!
      A small crop over a long period could be a win - enjoying them fresh for a while would be nice!
      Thanks for watching Joanna 😊
