Our First Crop


2 years ago we planted a pear tree graciously donated to us by my father-in-law. Please understand my father-in-law actually grew this tree from scratch. He sells about 10-12 every summer (and yes grows them all himself). Ours was about 5-6 ft tall when we planted it. Well this summer (or fall) we ate our 1st fruit from it. It only produced one this year, but it was pretty tasty! Looking forward to more in the years to come.
This only reminds me how taking care of the soil and plant ends up producing fruit. It's the only way... I think it's pretty similar with people and spiritual communities too.
