🔍 When is it ripe?
Apple: Background colour changes from green to yellow or cream (variety determines final colour). Seeds inside should be brown. Flesh yields slightly to thumb pressure. A ripe apple releases with a gentle upward twist — no pulling. Check the ground for natural drops.
Rose: Rose hips (swollen seed pods) ripen to red or orange after flowering. Pick when fully coloured and slightly soft. Remove the seeds and hairs inside (irritating). Very high in vitamin C; excellent for syrup, tea, and jelly. Leave some for birds in winter.
Between BP and 44: 3 apple trees, one sweet red (honeycrisp?), one sweet red/green (McIntosh?), one still green unripe as of sept. 16th. Fruiting heavily as of 2015. Also roses, some producing decent sized hips. Owner just feeds apples to the deer; employees ok with picking, just don't get hurt.
