I see small jack fruits on the tree. In a few months around May they should be ready for harvesting. Last year I could sell some which has not been the case in earlier years. I donated some, kept some and the rest were consigned to the compost pits I only hope I will get someone to buy them this year as well. What fruits grow in your garden and what do you do with them?

These days I have only a few blueberries and raspberries in my garden, I buy most of my fruit from local farmers.

The fruits that grow out there do not grow here. Do you get more than our needs?

I love jack fruits. We call it "langka" in the Philippines. It is an ingredient in many Filipino dishes and snacks. What is the Indian word for jack fruit?

Wow! Jackfruits' meat is quite juicy during summer season here. I am not into its meat. I am fond of eating the boiled beans of this fruit.

I remember you wrote about them last year. I hope you find lots of buyers. I have black raspberry and red raspberry bushes.

star apple fruit

I am already seeing young star apples on our tree, so I am expecting a bumper crop this season.

We are also hoping for a good mango season this year, also soursop, june plum and lots of bananas.

Not a single fruit tree in my garden except for two lemon trees still in baby phase. (I had enough trouble with fruit trees in my past properties.)

I love the taste of jack fruit, sold in the supermarket. Could find the fritter stalls selling fried jack fruits too, super tasty
