Orphaned orchard

Unpicked apples on untended trees in Littleton, Massachusetts. ¶ 

I don't really have anything new to say about the unfortunate neglect at what used to be a great orchard.

But obviously every year that passes increases the technical debt that must be paid to restore these trees.

I was out there on Friday.

  1. I grew up in Littleton and have fond memories of this orchard. In addition to the varieties you mentioned, it was a place to buy Gravensteins! It's demise is a sad thing indeed.
