[Sca-cooks] fruit trees

[Carper, Rachel]

I live in GA the peach state. And you can no longer get decent peaches
down here. You have to go to South Carolina. 

So Huette, where are you located? Are you going to have a pick and carry
for local folks? If your trees explode in fruit I mean.

Wow. How many trees did it take to produce this much fruit?

Of course I can remember the peach tree at my old house producing 
enough peaches to break the limbs. Beating the birds to the peaches 
though was a problem. They would peck a hole out of a peach and then, I 
guess, move to another.

Wondering if he should have gotten a bigger yard this time. But that 
would have meant a smaller house or a longer drive. And I haven't found 
time to start my herb garden, yet.
