Winter Harvest and Spring Preperations

With short days and frequent cloud cover, most of our crops go dormant from November until March; but not all of them. We have lots of Perennial Kale. We have Tree Tomatoes, Lemons, Limes, Grapefruits and Sweet Oranges.  And of course, Spicy Peppers to keep us warm!! Now is the time to prune all the fruit trees in anticipation of them breaking dormancy. Our apple trees are making many spurs now, so with a good summer we should have fruit this autumn. Our figs will be mature enough to produce fruit this year also.
