Our friends Rachel and Stacy came out to the farm with Meredithe and I to help dig some holes. The main focus was to get holes dug for trees that we would be picking up at Atlanta Local Food Initiative's 7th Annual Fruit Tree Sale. We knew we had to dig five holes for the three apple and two nectarine trees that had been ordered for us by our friends Richard, Shanna and their son Emery. We jumped out of the truck ready to get down to business worried about having time to get those five done. It might have taken an hour. After that we relaxed our pace a little and dug five more holes. Two of them were for two crab apples on their way from the Arbor Day Foundation(along with ten other flowering trees). The other three were for two more paw paws and an undetermined no pollination partner necessary tree and/or shrub that doesn't get too tall to be picked out at the ALFI tree sale.
