I love the things, too. We planted a couple of trees last winter, and surprisingly got a small crop off them this year! Looking forward to bigger crops as the trees grow

Willing to Trade Cherry Tomatoes.

We have buckets of them. I made so much Pasta sauce and froze it that we now have no containers in the house.

We got the best kind of Feijoas.......the neighbours :clap:

And some of the best roads :clap:

They have 4 trees & the buggers fall onto our property by the bucket load :wari:

The backpackers love it, anyone staying here can have as many as they like :niceone:

Feijoa addiction

I am not addicted to Feijoas, I could give them up any time. In the meantime, sent me another truckload.
