The old orchards of Oyama are not doing well. How could an orchard do well, with so few trees per acre? You might ask. This property, long-neglected, has sold.
These apples are over-mature.
This fence keeps the bears out, who might have put these apples to some use.

No, you may not eat those apples. They are not to eat. They are there to take pictures of, at the top of a cut bank above the Oyama Road, through the holes in a fence. Bah.
