The established 30 year olds are a small pear variety. And the other is an asian pear.

I planted a bartlet, and an asian pear as well in the orchard.

We also have 2 80 foot cherry trees. That produce pie cherries. Then all them blackberries. And hopefully in the future a Blueberry spot.

I love onions. Gotta get my onion bulbs and garlic in the ground before frost, so when spring comes they grow automatically

Fall is a great time to plant Strawberries if you can get plants. Especially June bearers. In cold climates they will need to be mulched heavily to prevent frost heaving. Dont fertilize them until they start growing in spring to prevent tender growth in winter.
