Our harvest parties are like a harvesting adventure with the UN. They are educational, fun, inspiring, and feel good events. Today’s harvest included carob pods, kumquats, grapefruit, Asian pears with representatives from Burundi, Mexico, Sudan, Vietnam, Iraq, China, Egypt, India and good old USA. It also included a tour through Tucson Botanical Gardens and learning about the importance of myrtus comunis (common myrtle) in Iraqi wedding ceremonies, learning fruit names in Arabic and Masalit, learning that Texas Olive (Cordia sp.) is edible and identifying what herbs are used in what countries.
