mango season

Pictured: mangoes ripening on neighbor's tree, hanging right over where our rainwater cistern is going to sit. In the distance, the large avocado tree we're preserving, and which will act as a focus of the courtyard.

Not pictured: four hungry peeps. If the mango tree is always going to produce fruit around Passover, we may have to alter our traditional menu of affliction.

  2. I neglected to mention the two sapadillo trees, too. I haven't worked up the courage to try one, yet, but we have a neighbor who makes preserves with sapadillo (or sapote).

    There is also a coconut palm just out of the frame, which should be a good source of potassium.
