The Peach Project Continues

Andrew Millson and his crew visited the rez again during June of this year. Three new plantings of peach and apricot trees were put in a tier arrangement near the main house. Run-off from the roof will provide some irrigation to keep the plants healthy. Small fences were placed around each plant to help keep the sheep and horses from eating them.
