Yes and no. It would bear almonds, but the army of squirrels raid the tree before they fully mature and leave the ground littered with shells.Does it fruit?

Delicious!I think I recall you saying last year the peaches were good from your trees.
so true! They are a bit of a misnomer these days; 'market for all sorts of things made by local people in their kitchens' would be a more accurate title for the ones near meThe last one I went to was a bit short on farmers, a bit short on raw produce. I did buy a very good jar of quince chutney there.
The one they had in the closest town was advertised as a "French Market". only a few veggies and eggs. ... mostly what they call "cottage" goods made in home kitchen.so true!

It loved going to the green grocers while we were in Whitby. It was so nice to be able to walk to the green grocer, butcher or fishmonger and the bakery every day or every other day and get just what you need at really great prices. We flash freeze a lot of what we grow in vacuum sealed bags, it retains more of its natural raw form. I think a lot of what you buy pre-frozen is blanched first, so basically cooked. :-(There used to be greengrocers. You know, shops that only sold fruit and veg.
We grow a variety of fresh herbs that we dry and use throughout the year. We are going to plant garlic this fall. We intended to plant for this year, but with all the other chicken and turkey projects going, we just ran out of time.I have had people surprised that they could actually grow garlic, or fruit, or seasonings. One neighbor thought almonds were an exotic and needed lots of water. She told me my almond tree would die because it was a tropical.
Although it was a revelation to me a few years ago when I learned of a pistachio grove a few miles north of where I was living. Desert zone 4, I believe.
