As I've mentioned before, one of my very favorite things is getting fresh local fruits and veggies. Thanks to my other fresh local find (Sam) we spotted an apple tree on our walk to church. It was in the yard of a house that was for sale and the apples were all falling and rotting! And they were delicious apples! (We may have sneaked a few on our walks). Anyway, I finally called the realtor and asked if we could pick them and they said "go ahead!" And go ahead we did! To our delight we found it was actually 3 apple trees and a pear tree! The apples were past their prime picking, so we didn't get as many of those. But we got TONS of pears-enough to give away lots and keep lots too! It was a fun little family activity-and the fruit was most delicious!

It really was some of the best apple and pear fruit I've ever had. Someone bought the house-we hope they don't let these gems go to waste! Happy Harvest!
