We are movin' & shakin' in 2011!

Shasky Farms has jumped into 2011 and making waves...of progress, that is!  We have so many things to share with you!

We have started pruning our fruit trees this week.  Even though it's cold, some of the trees have started to push out leaf buds.  It's been a weird winter, but we will take any cold we can get for the trees health.

Pruning like crazy!

We have a ton of citrus ready for our customers at the Farmers Markets.  We are currently addicted...yes addicted...to our Satsuma Mandarins.  You really have to try them, but then you would become addicted and we just don't know if we can share them!  Just kidding...we would love to share them with anyone!

Just a small portion of our citrus trees



Satsuma Mandarin...a Shasky Farms favorite!

We have also planted more red walnuts.  They have become one of our popular items for our customers.  If you like walnuts, but don't like the acidity, then these are the walnuts for you!  They are very tasty and less acidic then regular walnuts.  You can read about them in our last post.



We have also ordered some new cherry varieties to increase the length of the season, a few more varieties of apples, pears and a donut white nectarine (more to come later on that variety and others we grow!)
