  2021 SPRINGTIME IS FINALLY HERE AT "Robin's Fresh and Fruity" and "Our Little Orchard - Zion Road / Bellefonte, PA." It has been a long and ruff time since my last blog post, but like the rest of the world, we are starting to see some changes for the good.  Here are a few shots to brighten your day from OLO:                                                       Spring Flowers are a sure sign of hope.

HAPPY EARTH DAY 2021

Happy Earth Day 2021 from  Our Little Orchard  Yes, it is Earth Day 2021, and what a great way to honor the day by checking out some more pictures from OLO: These are a couple taken from Pegs, my BIG sister, and Mrs. Pyle's second-floor window.  Just to give you an idea of how large the zion orchard location is. They cover cherries and pea ches.  You might also catch a glimpse of some pear trees.     As we all know, the apples are just starting to blossom, but they will be outstanding, weather providing.   Chris Pyle is the owner and worker bee when it comes to getting ready for the upcoming seasons.  Here are just a couple of his tools of the trade. A picking ladder is a must.  Unlike your household ladders, it has a single leg on one side to fit into the tree. Very helpful to get to those hard-to-reach fruits.                                 ...
