Pear Tree This old Black Achan pear tree is over 130 years old and still bears fruit today. It's the last of a large commercial orchard that once stood in the surrounding rolling hills and is one of 119 varieties of fruit trees in the orchard.
These roots are part of the supportive structure of a series of Cypress Pines originally planted to provide a wind break in an orchard. The Pines look very healthy so it is difficult to know whether this was caused by natural erosion or my man's interference. Jeremiah 17:8 "He is like a tree planted by water, that sends out its roots by the stream, and does not fear when heat comes, for its leaves remain green, and is not anxious in the year of drought, for it does not cease to bear fruit.”
