THE BIGGEST CHALLENGE

What is the biggest challenge you will face in the next six months?

My biggest challenge in the next six months, will be reestablishing my urban farming initiative – the growing of pawpaw plants from seed.

I was in this enterprise for several years, growing pawpaws post-retirement.

I gave away both plants and fruit. Over quite some number of years, my gifts ran to the value of quite some thousands of dollars.

At the beginning of 2023, I let this program lapse.

My aim in the next six months is to reinstate myself as an urban farmer.

Reflections on what was, and what I hope will be again.
