My daughter has a tremendous apple tree in her yard, and we have 2 trees at an abandoned old homestead that we pick apples by the bucket fulls. Zero apples on any of these 3 trees this year.

I go hit hard too. Service berries, peach, plum, apples, pears, and apricots all got nuked. Dehydrating fruit for our kids is a major part of our harvest and we are going to get it this year. It was a great spring other than that snap freeze

Luckily strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries are all doing well since they fruited after so jam will still happen. Already got 2 pints in the cupboard!

I have a good amount of apples on. Mulberries were nearly nonexistent. Montmorency cherries were abundant, but got hammered by the birds, deer, flying squirrels, squirrels, opposums and coon. Plums, apricots, nectarines and peaches failed almost completely. Black raspberries also failed almost completely.

Everything looking good after one of the mildest winters on record. Bumper set on peaches and apples.

All of my apple trees are LOADED this year. I have never seen them produce like this. I suspect many will be damaged because they have more apples on them than the branches will support. Bumper crops of chokecherries, blueberries and blackberries too.


I have nothing clever to put here.

I don't have apples but my neighbor has and there is a few apples but it is a disastrous year for apples here too. June berry, current and choke cherry all have been hit hard with those early frosts. I did get a few current but that will be it.

I had the early frost last year and got about a 5 gallon bucket of apples total from 6 trees. Just the opposite this year. Some many apples that I've been thinning them and have already braced up the trees. I was worried because I saw very few bees but something pollinated the trees.

We are loaded this year. The last two years have been bad but this year will be excellent for apples, pears and prunes. Raspberries are doing well also, now I just have to beat the bear an elk to the fruit.

Just got done thinning mine and my dad's trees after the "June drop." We seem to be good this year.

I was also worried, not seeing too many bees this spring. We missed out on the late freezes.

going to be hit and miss around here. I had some young trees that I planted that are on their 3rd set of leaves from frost kills. my parents apple trees have decent crop on them right now...or would if my brothers kids would stop knocking them off.

Lost all my apples, cherries and plums to a late frost/freeze. Now my corn is just starting to silk and the deer came along and pulled down a ton of it. Might have to think about fencing my garden after 25 years.

None at all on the old trees in the orchard.
We had 2 hard freezes right when they were bloomed out.
Thankfully we froze about 25 lbs last year for some brandy.

One apple on 15 trees. It's a beauty though. I'm sure something will eat it before I get to.


Just passin through
