The biological diversity (both indigenous and introduced) of our area is one of my favourite things about it.
T. and I got some free figs this weekend. We went for a drive, and on the road going up to the St. Johns bridge, a truck with a load of tree trimmings had stopped because he'd spilled several branches over the road. We pulled over and helped him reload his truck, and it turns out one of the trees he'd trimmed was a fig, so I snagged a few of the smaller branches and now I've got six lovely figs just waiting to be eaten.
I'm still pondering why on earth he was trimming trees now.
Do they have Himalayan blackberries in Connecticut?
