When I inherited our parent’s large property, I wasn’t quite sure what to do with it.
While the home was wonderful, the yard it had was massive! Coming from a suburban neighborhood with a tiny yard that I maybe occasionally had to take a weed whacker to, seeing this large 6 acre property was intimidating.
Not only that, but it was practically an orchard. There were all odd kinds of fruit trees. Mainly orange trees, although there were also peach plus lemon trees as well. It took a lot of studying plus getting professional help, before I started getting the hang of it. Anyways, the issue with all of that fruit was that if it was not picked, it would just fall to the ground plus rot. It also seems these trees never stop producing fruit, so that makes it difficult to supply away all of it. Although since I let anyone in the neighborhood have the fruit, I have become quite popular. My son had a good idea, plus decided to make an orange juice stand. I told him that lemonade would be more popular, although he assured myself and others that with such good quality oranges, the orange juice would sell well. He chose a good time, it was in the middle of summer, plus the heat was bad. I was sad people were going to stay inside with their air conditioner unit. Instead, a lot of people were coming outdoors. My son was right, his orange juice lay did well. After a while, the people I was with and I were both ready to go inside back to the air conditioner. Other people were also retreating to their homes for sweet cooling relief. My son plus I then spent time in the air conditioner filled house, talking about what a good solution that was to our fruit problem.
