Two weeks ago the man who lived in my house 60-70 years ago (he is now over ninety!) Suggested that I hang the still unripe pears on the beams of the house, as they used to do in the past. When the pears turn yellow they are ready, so you avoid them being eaten by the animals of the forest or ruining them when they fall naturally.
Those that I have not hung have matured unevenly. I have many, some I’ll try to put them in spirit.
Early October fruit in Mannarolo: Pears, grapes, walnuts
Now they are yellow and ready. One is missing from the photos, which was stolen by that young lady who plays the vague in the fourth photo…
I have also found many wild apples during september scattered all over the forest.
