My apples are a "Food Crop" for me, I generally grow enough on my 2 trees to last through winter by freezing, canning and my favourite, apple butter. I also grow enough tomatoes, herbs, beans and various greens to last the year. It is early in my vegetable season but I do hope the food stuffs thrive! (Except rhubarb & Apples, I know I'm out of luck on those for this year.
