Almonds in bloom
 

Now for the allergies.

Beautiful! Nice spread!!

Did you buy an Airplane Charlie.? lol

That is beautiful. Does it have any smell? I was just looking at ordering some almond butter

Airplane? Do you need a pilot? I could do double-work: restore your projects then fly you to all those exotic places and let you pay for it!:biggthumpup:

That’s beautiful. Reminds me of the a cherry Blossoms in DC without all the political garbage.:rolleyes2:

I’ve been drinking Almond milk for years and love it.

‘

We drink Almond Milk too + eat a few handfuls of Raw Almonds every day.
Nice spread Charley, is that you in the red shirt also where’s the dogs?

Always knew you were nutty....this takes it to a new level

I don't see signs of burnouts?

On a differnt note.......that's georgeous Charley:drool:

That is me in the red shirt piloting the drone. This will be my fourth crop. Last years got wiped out by a frost.

Wow, very beautiful.

The fenced off rectangle area to the right of the orchard, is that where we are going to have this years 3 day swap meet?

VERY nice spread Charley.

Lotta protein!

If I start eating right and exercising I might live long enough to get my investment back. At this rate it is not going to happen.

Wow! Your trees grew really fast.




Looks awesome :biggthumpup:

2017

I can just barely smell them.

That’s really cool!

Do you have enough bees to pollinate Charley or do you truck the hives in?Good luck with this year's crop!

A local Company brings hives in for pollination. Costs several thousand each year.

You definelty have a green thumb for agriculture as well as all things automotive Charley.:biggthumpup:

Hives.

I remember when you put the trees it! Wow....:biggthumpup:

They certainly seem busy.

I am minutes away from finishing up our 10 boxes and 100 frames for this year.

We'll be in trouble if the bees keep dying at the rate that they are.

Well these two vids just put it all into perspective. I had no idea..

I especially like the 1:45 and 3:46 marks

I have seen where the shakers have a net that opens up and catches the nuts. Suprized they let them go on the ground

@ the 2:57 mark of Vid 2,he says they want to let them dry out on the ground for awhile first.

Yep saw that. What I remember is the machine catches them and then dumps them on large tables where they dry and are separated. No doubt there is a reason for their methods.

Almond land...
