I’ve got a cooking apple tree and a couple of cider apple trees but sadly, I don’t use them, a lot go to waste. However, I do have a neighbour who comes and takes a couple of barrow loads for cider making so not all wasted. The pear tree is very old and does produce fruit but it’s very small. They are great for attracting wild birds though which is a nice bonus. Low hanging fruit that sits in front of my back wall make good targets against a nice backstop too
Mmm, never thought about using the yew tree for bow making !
