The pears on our lone tree are starting to ripen. The tree suffered last winter, and I really didn't expect anything this year. I have been surprised. It isn't the overwhelming harvest of the past several years, but it is more than enough for our family. Miles, Teija and I ventured out yesterday to see if it is time to pick.Pears ripen off the tree, so I judge by the willingness of small children to gnaw away at the still slightly hard fruit.
I think the pears are ready.
