Abandoned Orchard

There’s no wagon rides in this apple orchard, it has been abandoned for years. I believe cows sometimes graze here but we didn’t see any when we walked the orchard. The old orchards didn’t need irrigation, as the trees could fend for themselves. Full-size apple trees have deep root systems that survive wind, snow, dry summers and neglect for decades and if times get tough, you’ll still have apples.
