    Or kung gusto mo ng ginataang dinuguan sa tanghalian, eto Kamansi. Or pwede din yong Tipolo(Antipolo).

    Nice Pili trees bro. The one at our ancestral house in Bicol is about as tall as a Coconut tree. Maganda lang doon walang nagnanakaw, super taas kasi

    What do you do with your Pili? Do you make tarts or candied nuts?

    ^There are traders who buy the tree fruits. Others buy the sap(Manila Elemi) for fuel or export abroad in making perfume. Largest concentration ng large Pili nsa Sorsogon but there are plenty more sa forested area sa Quezon.

    Here, the young trees are intercropped with Formosa pineapple, a slow growing fruit takes 22months to bear. These pineapples are the ones you see in sidewalk vendors. Yan narin staple diet ko for fiber and some says good for the heart/ anti-arthritis.


    And that is one reason why i can't letgo of the old leaf-sprung pickup bro, it rides like an SUV without smelling the chicken dung.. Na try kona kasi, out of pangangailangan sa nursery 1 sack sa SUV, langya amoy yan buti short distance lang

    Bless you, sir! Admire what you're doing there.[emoji120][emoji106] Must be so fulfilling, I imagine. Wish I had the resource. The passion, like knowledge, can definitely be acquired. What a great way to grow old. Hats off![emoji120]

    Looking at your to plant list, damn bro, your farm must be huge. Looks like you're well prepared for retirement already. I'm jealous!

    I actually miss the pickup. Was pretty fresh for its age. Had to sell it when I got the suv as I would've gone mad trying to maintain/register/insure so many cars.

    Great work on the farm. Everything looks so lush and thriving. Hopefully if I strike it rich I could go a similar route. Hats off to you bro!
