Reform seems to have a few bad orchards rather than a few bad apples..,

Can someone show me a single 'good apple' in the rotten orchards?

I don’t fuck with orchards so I can’t speak on that. Orchards? Apple picking? That’s a racket. You want ME to pay YOU to work your land? Fuck off, Tom Sawyer. I’m on to your grift

Vernon's Davison Orchards endured drought and wildfire, but came out on top - Vernon News
It has been a year of ups and downs for Vernon's Davison Orchards. As the season comes to an end, the farm, which employs dozens of people, looked back on the summer of 2026

"Israel is systematically blowing up southern Lebanese villages and towns, poisoning farmland with high concentrations of glyphosate, destroying essential farming equipment and irrigation systems, burning ... orchards, and taking further measures to ensure people cannot return to their homes[.]"
"[P]lan hatched over 100 years ago."

"Israel is conducting a third colonial campaign of ethnic cleansing."

"[O]ver 1.2 million people, a fifth of Lebanon's population, forcibly displaced from the south."

It's possible New Ohio could exist. It might have a decent plum-growing region, although the recent influx of retirees from California have converted some of the orchards to condos.

It's probably worth that there's a set of voters in Silicon Valley who are still big mad that all the beloved orchards are gone because of some stupid tech startup called Apple.

Eastern Bluebird
Male

The eastern bluebird (Sialia sialis) is a small North American migratory thrush found in open woodlands, farmlands, and orchards.

Male bluebirds have a bright head, back, and wings. Their breast is a brownish red. Females are lighter.

#NovemberWorldbuilders The domesticated, or at least trained, monkeys that help maintain the orchards of Aio Hwung have red-orange fur. Some of these monkeys have been imported to Grand Harbor, where the Azure Order uses them to assemble the keys for its one-time pads.
Hey there, #NovemberWorldbuilders friends! I'm combining yellow and orange because orange tends to get the short end of the stick. But feel free to talk about either or both! What is something in your fictional world that is YELLOW or ORANGE?

I can though satisfy that need by just adding fig orchards to the rice farms.

Autumn.

Rainer Maria Rilke.

The leaves are falling, falling as if from far up,
as if orchards were dying high in space.
Each leaf falls as if it were motioning “no.”
And tonight the heavy earth is falling
away from all other stars in the loneliness.

I live near a bunch of wacky orchards, Scott Farm in VT is devoted to heirlooms. I do think you could make that tree by means of grafting

Apple picking looks different in some parts of the country this year after a late spring freeze in the mid-Atlantic, Northeast, and Midwest decimated crops.

Marketplace's Samantha Fields visited Solebury Orchards in Pennsylvania, where the weather shift forced a change to an annual tradition.

O dark lords of the spooky season, I have braved your dead orchards to present my latest creation: a Mulled Wine, Quince, and Apple Pie.

May its sanguinary filling be worthy of your approval.

2/2 but in veteran orchards Flavoparmelia caperata can be fertile, probably because of lichen maturity, well-lit trees, optimal moisture cycles of hydration & dedication & no ammonia (NH₃) or sulfur dioxide (SO₂) pollution. Veteran orchards are early senescent biodiversity hotspots #lichenGBI

Yet Mexico's harvested orchards went from 100,000 to 253,000 hectares. Pressure on water and biodiversity is counted in hectares and cubic metres, in absolute terms.

Behold the pawpaw, the tropical-tasting ‘alien banana’ that grows right here in Canada

Pawpaws taste like a banana, mango and pineapple all rolled into one

Behold the pawpaw, the tropical-tasting ‘alien banana’ that grows right here in Canada | CBC Radio
The pawpaw fruit tastes of banana, mango and pineapple and was once abundant across parts of North America, but it can still be found growing wild and in some orchards.
