What a joy it was to discover when we moved in, that our garden grows glorious summer fruits! Right here in the middle of Brooklyn we have Figs, plums, Blackberries and Raspberries growing. Watching fruit ripen on a tree is a slow rewarding pleasure….and then the day finally comes that you get to eat it!
I totally know what you mean! We discovered currants, a huge sour cherry tree, and grapes in our new Brooklyn apartment’s backyard – what an amazing treat! (We’re in Kensington, so we’re sort of neighbors…)
