On second thought, lemons bring joy to others. Ava is my inspiration to harvest fruit for donation to the local food pantries. Imagine a world along the streets of Concord, Clayton, Walnut Creek, Pleasant Hill, Martinez, Lafayette, Orinda where lemons, apples and oranges fall to the ground - rotting - while children around us have no fresh fruit at their breakfast table? Hunger is in our very own neighborhood! Please, help the Lemon Lady today. Spread joy, share fruit.

Anna,
ReplyDeleteI have an orange tree. Huge amount of beautiful oranges. Almost ready to harvest. Can't wait to make our first personal donation from our own fruit tree this year.
Thanks for all you do.
Cathy,
ReplyDeleteThank you for the comment. Only hope to bring awareness that fruit can be donated to the neighborhood food pantries, or the county food bank. I'm as excited as you are! :)
Ava is growing like a weed!
ReplyDeleteWe have a Food Bank here in Raleigh, NC.
I wonder if Lemons are good for the teeth??
