Well we have a 1,000 trees campaign or some-such but there’s been a marked decline in interest after Sandy caused so many of the trees to cause property damage. Love of flora only goes so far, dontchaknow.
And, with that, I must be off.
Did I just hear someone say, “Whaddya mean ‘with that?’”
Just what are you implying, anyway?
I would wager that none of the trees causing damage were fruit trees. Someone should give that campaign another look, with an emphasis to the benefits the whole community would have to replanting with fruit trees.
Then at the appropriate seasons, community efforts could produce cherry pies, apple whatevers and all kinds of other things.
Well worth doing, in my opinion.
