Hi! I've got one Highland/Shorthorn cross cow Bonnie, her bull calf Cody (born4/14/10), three Standard Bronze turkeys and various pets on ten acres in Southcentral Alaska. We're just really getting started with our little farm and have big plans for the future. I plan to have a fold of Highlands, 3 breeding cows and a bull. Our turkeys are still teenagers and don't quite have the hang of breeding lol!:rolleyes: We raised a pig last year but need better accommodations before we do that again. Gardens and an orchard are being planned but it'll be awhile before they get rolling full force.

:welcome from Michigan!

What kind of orchard do you have in Alaska?

My husband loves Granny Smith apples, but our winters in Michigan get too cold for them.

Apples, and... well, mostly apples. We can grow choke cherries too but what's the point? Apples do really well up here if we can keep the moose and rabbits and stray cows away from them, lol. :p I forgot to add the berries! We've got raspberries and strawberries and I'm going to add blueberries this year at some point.
