Gardening and Farming

Inggit much ako sa farm mo 12.

Bihira kaya ako makausap na gumagamit ng endemics. Usually dito sa area namin gusto exotics. Inis nga ako sa indian tree kasi parang sa patay eh. Ito pa naman lagi ginagamit ng townhouse developer.

Yan si noni fruit sumikat dati na herbal juice masarap.

Kung weekly ka ang layo nga lang biyahe mo bicol parang kalahating araw ata yan.

^5-6hrs lang yung pili farm from my residence here in Manila kung gabi ako drive. The beach is +3hrs. Yan yung last big purchase ko 2yrs ago na pinagplanuhan develop to resort but changed my mind dahil dadami tao sa lugar.

Dapat talaga magtanim lahat ng pinoy, siguro kung entitled tayo sa 5has land then tataniman ng endemic trees mas madami makikinabang as compared kung gagawin subdivision/ commercial. I was offered 16has tax dec, ipapasok ko sana as corporation ng isang tunnel vent poultry and convert into forest hindi lang kami nagkasundo sa presyo.

So far eto yung mga mixed trees on my planting list other than the existing Narras, Mahogany, Gmelinas, Kalamansi, Pomelos, Atis, Cheesa, Avocados, Rambutan, Lanzones, Dalandans.atbpa Yung iba jan endangered tree na and some are vulnerable to exinction. Yung Magkono nagpapahanap ako, kung wla makuha sadyain ko sa bisaya.

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

Maganda din kasi bakasyunan yong dagat pwede mamingwit lang then wla pa istorbong mga beach goers dahil malayo sobra yung beach sa kabihasnan

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!

in my mom's place in Batangas, they still have the Kalumpit tree, a huge and very tall tree. it must be very old too since nung bata pa ako at nagbabakasyon kami, nasubukan ko mamulot ng bunga. no idea kung may tumutubong seedlings.

i have the common tsiko, duhat, santol, guyabano, kasoy, bayabas, mangga, kalamansi, bignay atbp. sa aking maliit naman na taniman sa pangasinan
