It must be a bit sad to see the trees shrouded but great excitement when the harvest is revealed. The netted trees make me think of puffy clouds!<br />AnnieOBTextileshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03567538195625893200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4573422992082776289.post-11907274329041808262016-01-07T15:12:56.470+11:002016-01-07T15:12:56.470+11:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00521656841008350423noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4573422992082776289.post-3077714966920422602016-01-07T10:11:32.910+11:002016-01-07T10:11:32.910+11:00I caught twelve cockies in my apple tree the other...I caught twelve cockies in my apple tree the other night – not sure how much fruit we'll have left by autumn!<br /><br />Sadly our house sitter didn't water our garden at all while we were away in December. The fruit trees are recovering, thank god, but we lost the vegies and the trays of seedlings. I'm trying to decide if it's worth planting anything before it gets super hot, or if I should just build up some no-dig layers or a green manure crop and hold off on the vegies until autumn. I keep reminding myself that at least the pets are still alive … (The poor chooks and ducks all went broody because she didn't collect any eggs; by the time we got home they were sitting on nests full of eggs that had rotted in the heat.)Pinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04202997946071488568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4573422992082776289.post-796115053538447252016-01-07T09:45:19.505+11:002016-01-07T09:45:19.505+11:00Why is it that gardens can be so tricky to get too...Why is it that gardens can be so tricky to get too? I have the same problem here! <br />I agree that the trees are more appealing un-netted but then you would miss the joy of the apples, and that would be worse :-) Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07424494318400885717noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4573422992082776289.post-62902097289629745752016-01-07T07:51:48.603+11:002016-01-07T07:51:48.603+11:00I enjoy reading how your family all works together...I enjoy reading how your family all works together to get a big job done. The trees do look a bit like veiled brides! :-). My plan was to run some errands today, but as the roads are snowy and icy again I've decided to just stay in. I did get some cleaning done though.<br />Blessings,<br />BetsyBetsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00807691752817225336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4573422992082776289.post-34286534248252299712016-01-07T01:56:50.646+11:002016-01-07T01:56:50.646+11:00And here I thought just pruning them and such was ...And here I thought just pruning them and such was plenty of work! My hats off to you and yours having to net them as well! Plans for today and everyday this year in fact, to de-clutter, organize, even if it's just a couple of things a day. Soon it'll be time to load the greenhouse (tiny and homemade, but does the job)with rows of seeded pots. Add a few rooster to the freezer, make homemade soap, all just a few things that come to mind to do in the coming days.Angelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13069413208192422413noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4573422992082776289.post-35203992470489239252016-01-07T01:21:41.728+11:002016-01-07T01:21:41.728+11:00Hi Kate, We net our lemon trees in winter to prote...Hi Kate, We net our lemon trees in winter to protect them from harsh weather. I know how you feel, I always hate to put up the netting and hide the trees, especially our giant lemon tree out front! But last year we didnt put up the nets and there was a freak snowfall which killed off all the harvest, so that taught us! P.S Love your idea of blogging every day in January, I hand't blogged for over a year but am now inspired to try your idea!nikinposhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03973679156924288760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4573422992082776289.post-60112847472656770082016-01-07T00:01:32.485+11:002016-01-07T00:01:32.485+11:00Hi Kate, we had planned to build sand castles toda...Hi Kate, we had planned to build sand castles today with motes and decorated with beautiful shells but the wind proved to be a pain spraying us with sand. So then we thought we would make a seaweed wall to protect us from the wind, lucky for this mumma mr 10 and miss 9 grew tired of that (I was doing most of the work!) then we went and visited daddy on the jetty and that's when miss 9 lost her hat to the wind and sea. After crying for way longer than was needed we decided to go back to the camper and watch DVDs and I could have a much needed cup of tea!! Love reading you posts!!

I'm going to make the most lamearse farmer I know :-( (9th photo).<br /><br />Love how the whole family gets involved and the rule about cleaning up. Your netting methods look similar to how it's done on vineyards, they look amazing when there's fields of them - snowy like... I love your apple brides!<br /><br />One plan for today was going to bed early as I've been dragging myself outta bed for work all week... no tick there but did get some financial stuff sorted for our move, and started putting the feelers out to the family about finding a new home for our beloved Grans piano... we can't take it with us so I'm hoping another family member has room to keep it. So a couple of ticks there.... swings and roundabouts hey? Rarely goes to plan but eventually stuff gets done... good luck with the gardening and birthdaying xAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4573422992082776289.post-15138984596428931242016-01-06T20:16:26.109+11:002016-01-06T20:16:26.109+11:00great post Kate-I wondered how you did the netting...great post Kate-I wondered how you did the netting. Do you have problems with parrots getting caught in them? I gave up netting my trees (maybe my netting technique is faulty) as the parrots got caught and we had to hold them while they squealed (pecking us) and I had to cut the net from their claws..all very stressful-I haven't managed to reap any fruit from our trees.Juliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11670652186956190728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4573422992082776289.post-25198457279537962262016-01-06T20:12:53.346+11:002016-01-06T20:12:53.346+11:00My plan for today was make smoothies for the freez...My plan for today was make smoothies for the freezer, some balls, some fritters & organise new bank accounts. Everything is ticked off but the house is a mess ( it always is) & my toddlers are running naked in the back yard with the sprinkler. I should be sweeping the patio & taking the recycling to bin but I'm here reading your words. It's a nice place to be :)Reannon https://www.blogger.com/profile/04215161182830545561noreply@blogger.com
