Sarah's Garden
I visited my friend, Sarah, yesterday and took some pictures of her garden, shown above. We also did a produce exchange. I traded basil and mulberries in exchange for tomatoes. I'm having a bad tomato year and Sarah is basil challenged at the moment.
Sarah recently planted a mulberry tree like mine, but it's going to be a few years before it produces enough fruit to make her sick as me. In the meantime, she can be sick only once a week or so, when we see each other. Wondering why we eat things that make us sick? Because it tastes so good!

I thought mulberries grew on bushes?
Round and round the mulberry...
Maybe they grow on bushes too, but mine grow on a tree. At least I think it's a tree. It has a trunk and I need to stand on a ladder. Bushes are usually not much taller than me. :)
How is your cherry tree doing? Any fruit yet?
Last year we had enough cherries to make a pie. This year I managed to eat maybe two or three. It rained so much that they started breaking open, and the birds got to them before we did.
Still waiting for the grapes to ripen. There's a couple tiny oranges on the new orange tree, a couple blackberries on the new vine, and still no kiwis on the kiwi vines. New plants don't like to fruit the first year or two.
Well i could trade you both...avacados,bananas,papaya,and mangos. Maybe we could get an international fruit exportation thing happening!
Wow, that works for me, Michelle. Too bad we can't email the fruit to each other. :)
