Margaret took me to Jung's when I visited Madison today and got me some early, awesome, Christmas presents! Two pear trees, a cherry tree, and two types of raspberries. I planted the trees in my old kitchen garden near the house. This spot is not working out as a garden, but for trees it has 100% sunshine and it's already fenced in and the ground mulched. So it's a real good spot.
The raspberries were mostly planted in the area of the burn pile in the big garden. This soil was not really prepared but has minimal grasses and I think it will work out well. I had straw mulch on the field that had to come off so after planting I dumped all that straw on top. The soil her stays pretty wet and I think it will be good raspberry soil. We'll see!
