That’s a great story. Love hearing about people who care about things.. particularly those you can eat.

I can connect with his passion for growing exotic fruit and his years of patience as his efforts bloomed and blossomed.

I’m hooked on asian pears myself. Cold weather is good for them, something we have had quite a bit of here lately.. sets their buds up for next season, should be a good one.

I’ve considered buying land to grow truffles, the dark brown fungus that the chocolate treat is made to resemble.

I love growing exotic fruits too. So much so that when I was designing my house, the attached greenhouse was non-negotiable.

There’s one that I’m hoping to add to my collection next year that supposedly has fruit with the taste and texture of chocolate pudding!
