Harvesting Fruits

The fruits I have harvested so far this season:

Strawberries
Rhubarb
Cherries - tart Montmorency
Gooseberries
Raspberries
Currants - black, red, white
Wolfberries - still ripening
Bush Cherries
Boysenberries
Blackberries

That is also the approximate order they were ripening.  Peaches will be ready soon.  The time of harvest partly depends on the variety you plant.  Apples and peaches can ripen over a wide time period.  For a longer harvest plant trees that ripen at various times.  Be sure to have a pollinator for the types you want to grow - especially for apples, sweet cherries, bush cherries, and pears.

  1. Harvesting fruits is one of the exciting time for me. It's nice to see the fruits of your hard work. Not only for the fruits but also vegetables.
