New Fruit - Autumn Olive, health support, structured creativity

May 28, 2008

Autumn Olive is a small tree, large shrub that produces a Goumi like fruit in

the fall.? Starts can be purchased from One Green World, Raintree Nursery and

soon from me (Meadows Tilth Urban Farm).

Tree ripened fruit is deep red in color and about the size of a small raisin.?

The taste is distinctive, sour/sweet so I use in place of lemon or cranberry in

recipes. The seeds are large and valuable so I mostly juice the Autumn Olives.

Three or more people will receive packets of 10 fruit this fall the packets will

go to the first 3 responders by phone or email.?? Please respond with your

mailing address so I can mail them to you in September/October 2008.

I recommend you eat the fruit carefully so as not to damage the seed and then

plant it.? The seeds may take as long as 18 months to germinate so be patient

and do label the place you plant them.

The fruit will also be available for sale in the fall and who knows how high or

low the market price will be this Autumn?!? The mystery and joy of farming...

I have a 1/4 cup of last years crop in my freezer and will give 3 seeds free to

anyone who takes a dance lesson, piano lesson, yoga session, or math/science

tutoring session from me, while my supply lasts and please mention this email

offer.? Thank you.? It is helpful to me and my clients to have common interests

and to support each other in many ways so I want to enrich my life with a few

new wonderful people.? I have limited time per day but if you are patient we can

work out a convenient time and location.? Playing music, social or competitive

dancing, learning about and realizing more of our human potential or

understanding the universe all can enhance our life experience.

Thank you all so very much.
