I did notice the pear tree up home, which has not borne any pears for the last couple of years, is loaded down. There will be much pear preserve making this fall! I guess the old tree (it's near 50 years old) has to rest a couple of years in between big crops. It will be pear harvest time in mid-September.

 

 

I had 2 old pear trees and they were so big that I couldn't cull so lots and lots of little guys. My neighbor introduced me to baking the halves with a touch of butter, sugar, and cardomom. A frequent evening treat, They were a tad grainy for out of hand eating
