More Blooms at Augsburger Farm

There are a lot of old trees on our farm, left over from years ago when there was an official Orchard. Some of the trees are left from the orchard. Some of them are "planted" by birds in old fence rows.  Most are neglected, but they do add color to the farm in spring!

Yesterday, the Plum trees began blooming.
 

And this morning, the Cherry trees are in bloom as well.

Our pear tree is about halfway to full bloom.

I am working in the herb garden today, trying to limit the effects of Lemon Balm and Peppermint that I planted  about 8 years ago...and find my Yarrow and Lovage that have been overtaken.
