I am planting a 15 tree orchard in November and can't wait to be overrun with pears and fruit. If you've got any Victoria Plums I'll take some off you. :-)

My neighbours take the heavy load from their apple tree to middle farm press and produce many litres of divine apple juice which they freeze. I don't know how much it costs but maybe worth investigating?

pie filling, or flavored brandies might be nice. you can also dehydrate sliced fruit. all of them would make wonderful gifts for giving. i'm sure you could google some recipes and youtube has how-to videos. have fun!
