Title: Do you have any trees bearing fruit at home?
Post by: candyterrius on February 24, 2017, 11:00:27 pm: Some people have trees that grow a particular fruit such as lemons, oranges, kumquat, persimmons, grapefruit, pomelos, apples etc. I feel blessed at home to have an avocado tree. A lot of people and I love eating avocados. :heart: Last year, the tree started to bloom flowers during the spring of April. November is the month to harvest avocados in abundance as they begin to fall off from the tree.

I had so many peaches and pears as they fell off the trees i'd feed them to the pigs i raised .... Needless to say it was the best pork in the world, the saying you are what you eat hold true on this one!

I would have endless snacks during the summer! :heart: We live in the suburbs close to a major city, with a very small yard. At most we grew cherry tomatoes in wooden barrels when I was a kid. Homegrown cherry tomatoes are so delicious. :in-love:

Fruit trees are not expensive. You can get them at Walmart and Lowe's for around $5-$6 It takes a while for them to grow but the trees are pretty cheap.
