P.S. Picked some loquats too!


Almost forgot to mention. After leaving the Martinez Farmers' Market...I found a loquat tree. Look how unbelievably easy to reach and pick fruit from this tree. Most of the 4,500+ pounds of fruit I've harvested since February has been from trees that are low to the ground, within easy reach.

I'll check back in a few weeks when the fruit is ripe.

  2. I generally don't disclose addresses. Is there any particular reason of interest?

  3. By the way, I always obtain permission from the resident before attempting to pick fruit from any tree, regardless if even growing into so called "public" lands.

  4. MMMM love loquats! They would be a good addition to the orange and lemon mix of citrus.
