Profile:

I am a plantsman, grower, farmer, teacher and speaker. Trained in Horticulture which is all about growing useful plants from food to fiber, flowers and trees. Though college education is a launching ground, my enthusiasm and passion lie in the field of growing food organically.

Posts by Skipley Farm, Gil:
  • Caramel Apples, Medlar, Grapes
  • The last fruits of the season
  • A small selection, tasting- Octoberfest 23rd 3-5PM
  • All picked here- few apples, good on grapes. Shake down a tree-an apple a day is 80 pounds per year.
  • The apples are picking nicely. Tasty this year, good size
  • Etsy listing available in my shop- Apples etc.
  • The work around the farm this week: Trimming grape shoots back to flowers (2 days); Spraying kaolin clay on Apples for maggot protection; potting up overgrown plants; foliar feeding nursery; staining 2300 bf of cedar with boiled linseed; prepping site for new checkout stand..
  • First Fruit Picking July 1st
  • Hiking in Germany May ’22 This region of the Schwäbische Alb is rich with thousands of apple trees in the fields and along the roads
