While you're adding fruit trees, look at an asian pear, especially if you still can fruit. They are hardy in central NY and most pests don't bother them. We have several of them, some ripened about 2 weeks ago, others in about a week and still others going into mid and even late October. They are a rather hard pear, we eat some out of hand but many more get canned. The grandkids love them canned especially.
Still opening totes and boxes, we are too and we moved 6 years ago this month. Last year the yield was low but this year we kept having to thin because the trees are too heavy. Last year we had a hard frost when in blossom.
Dave Klish, I recently ordered a 2x6 wood fired evaporator from A&A Sheet Metal which I will be converting to oil fired
Now have solar, 2x6 finish pan, 5 bank 7x7 filter press, large water jacketed bottler, and tankless water heater.
Recently bought another Gingerich RO, this one was a 125, but a second membrane was added thus is a 250, like I had.
After running a 2x3, a 2x6, 3x8 tapping from 79 taps up to 1320 all woodfired, now I'm going to a 2x6 oil fired and a 200-425 taps.
