Go and get a bushel basket. We had several on the farm and used them for all sorts of things. Many items carried in the bushel basket came from the garden –sweet corn or winter squash. But sometimes, a person doesn’t want an entire bushel.
So get a peck. Four to a bushel. A common measure at the apple orchard when we did our annual visit during my childhood.
This urban apple tree looks like you could pick a peck easy. I call it urban because of where it is growing. I don’t know the variety of apple.
In the sweet romance, Hiding Places, the hero, Linc Dray is working hard to inherit his grandfather’s farm and start an apple orchard. But life throws more than the usual number of obstacles in his path. Click on the link to find more book information: https://amzn.to/2Jm26GQ
