First of all, I have to say that any phone call you make to Wayne Young is a fruitful one. He’ll tell you about the latest book he’s reading (if Wayne’s taking the time to read a book, it’s DEFINITELY worth reading!); his latest revelation about life, relationships, or the self; and of course, what’s up at High Hill Orchard. And so began my 2017 career up on the hill - a phone call in late February had me hooked!
Here’s a pic of Wayne pruning the apple trees on the west side of the house on March 14 - that random snowstorm we had. I must say I took the day off (I guess I’m still a kid at heart), but my camera told me we needed some artsy snow pics for record keeping.
Also featured above are the beehives, overwintering on the western edge of the property, and my dog Chip leaping majestically and not-so-effortlessly through the foot of snow.
