 Grapes Grapes and more Grapes...make excellent bottled grape juice and going on our 2nd year of homemade vino~

2 years ago this used to be a yard that was mostly dead weeds, & zero sprinklers. It had a broken chain link fence half that cut off half the back yard. We ripped the fence out and built the iron fence that you see. Jared built all the arches for the grape vines. The only living thing was the apricot tree. Since we moved in we have done an entire sprinkling system, (trying to get the grass back to green) seeded for grass, 7 grape vines, peach tree, veggie garden, plumb tree, corn on the cob, wild flowers, lavender, basil, rosemary, 8 raspberry plants, 2 apple trees, and more I haven't thought of.....  In the front yard we have a tree that is over 100 ft. tall that costs us $900 to thin and prune it correctly. No homes/cars/people were injured...I was very glad!!! We have A LONG way to go to get my yard the way I want it. But I have to remember how far we have come.  It costs a lot in time and money to make a yard look pretty. We shall see how this improves over the years......
