 As the sun reached it peak in the clear blue sky, Applejack looked about the area, smiling wide at their progress. It had been quite a lot of work, but the had finally gotten the first few trees done for their new orchard, transferred right from Sweet Apple Acres. She couldn't help but feel a tad homesick, but for now, she figured she would get settled in the best she could, with planting tons of new apples for everypony to enjoy! "Boy howdy, Apple Bloom, we sure have our hooves full, don't we?" she said as she glanced down at her little sister. It was really pure luck she was able to drag her away from her friends, but she really appreciated the help. "Yeah, we sure do." she said as she glanced about. Today she got wrangled into helping her older sister add to their new orchard, mainly planting the smaller tress...though they were tiny enough they just looked like twigs sticking out of the ground. As much as she would have rather been with the other crusaders, this was still a chance at finding her special talent. Even if she didn't, she had to help her big sister and she was enjoying herself a bit.

 Braeburn was already outside watering his little orchard of apple trees. He was indeed starting over and he was homesick. He missed his family and he did miss Appleloosa. He missed the wide open acres of trees. But now he was in a new place and he needed to start over here.
So with that about maybe a week ago he arrived and started planting little trees of apples and was watering them everyday and spreading the love. But recently he heard about the Apple Reunion was located in almost the same place he was located. So he decided he would get his watering down and head on down to his cousin.
He trotted so happy down to the new orchard and stood right behind AppleJack and AppleBloom. "Well Howady Cuz!" He smiled and looked at them. "How is AppleJack and AppleBloom doing!?" He looked around and noticed they too were planting apple trees for everypony like he was doing. "Uh, cuz, do you need any help with this here planting?"

 Big Macintosh was a little ways off, dragging a plow to ready the soil for saplings or seeds to be planted. From what he could tell, the orchard was coming on quite nicely. And while he missed Granny and his friends back in Ponyville, he was quite optimistic about this new place. After all, his little sisters were there! All it took to make a place feel like home was a little family... and some apples, of course!
He smiled as he worked, occasionally glancing over to his sisters to see how they were getting on with the planting. It was during one of these times that he spotted his cousin, Braeburn, approaching. Surprised to see him, Big Mac was almost tempted to unhitch himself from the plow and go over to say hello... but he decided to finish this one last row first.
With a small grunt he lurched forward, stepping up just a bit from the casual pace he was using before. Being a large pony, he could take the weight against his chest with relative ease. After all, that injury from the last apple bucking season had cleared up quite nicely.
