Last night dipped to 12° F in the #PomegranateOrchard 🥶 #Pomegranate trees are cold-hardy and some variety can stand extremely low temperatures and will stand up to a cold freeze. We’ll see how ours do through their first winter in #LlanoTX #Texas

Autumn has taken ahold of the #PomegranateOrchard. The leaves are changing to a beautiful yellow color as water remains in the swales from our last rain. Heading into winter and all our trees have survived their first season. Soon, this year’s leaves will fall.

Pink arils in these #Texas Pink #Pomegranate. They are delicious. Not bad for their first year. #PomegranateOrchard #LlanoTX

Final harvest of the first year of our #PomegranateOrchard. All the fruit is now off the trees prior to our first frost. Exciting times ahead.

The first early harvest at Main Street Pomegranate is a beautiful sight and a wonderful promise of what is to come. #Texas #Pomegranate #LlanoTX #PomegranateOrchard

It’s been a week and a half since the rain, and our #PermacultureSwales are still holding water. Water, Weeds and Wildlife. 🥰 #LlanoTX #PomegranateOrchard #Texas #Pomegranate

Blessed with much needed rain this week. The Pomegranates are loving 🥰 all the moisture.

We are busy mulching the berms at the #PomegranateOrchard, aside from looking much better, mulching helps keeps the weeds down, and helps retain moisture in the soil. Get FREE mulch for your garden at the #LlanoTX City Dump @CityofLlano

It was a busy weekend at the orchard, distributing 180 cubic yards of mulch from the City Dump to help save the Community Gun Range. Check out the article in next Thursday’s Ag tab in the @llanonews

Another storm ⛈ made its way through. With the ground already saturated, the swales filled up with water. A few modifications are still needed, but the permaculture swales work.

Enough run-off already to start filling up the top swale, but will need a bit more volume to get the overflow we’re looking for. Dry ground acts like a sponge 🧽

Happening now at Main St Pomegranate ⛈ Some much needed rain for Llano, TX. We’ll see if there’s enough rain to fill the swales.

Four strands of stretched wire now span each row of trees. Maturing pomegranate trees will be trained to spread their branches for maximum sunlight and should make the harvest a bit easier, too. The trellises are complete.

We needed some extra help around the orchard, weeding and digging, so we brought in reinforcements. Meet Daisy and Buttercup. ☺️

“Y” shaped supports are mounted to complete the trellis frames. These frames will hold 4 strands of stretched wire to support the trees as they mature. #PomegranateOrchard #LlanoTX #Pomegranate #Texas
