This year I finally have a substantial enough crop that I could give away some of the fruit with no expectation of reciprocation.

This happened a couple of days ago when a neighbor asked if they could pick some. I’d been meaning to glean this week but I hadn’t really taken a serious look at the plants in a minute and there’s a lot more fruit on them than I guessed. I’ve gone straight past, “I’ll trade some of these with a neighbor for some vegetables” into “I may have made a mistake”.

It’s just hitting me now that I finally have too much of something, which has happened on projects I’ve helped with but never on my property.
