Guarding the PEACHES

It's almost peachtime in St. George again and our little 4 foot peach tree is about ready. But the chipmunks and raccoons know that too and made an early incursion into our crop and got several green peaches. Hope they got a belly ache. This inspired my hubby to build a net enclosure around our tree which seems to be working. Let you know in a few weeks the results.

Look at those luscious peaches ripening on our tiny tree
