Picking Bayberries!

2012-5-24

This morning, the Third Branch collectively participated in a yangmei picking activity. Some of the yangmei are already ripe, and Dean Xintao mentioned that the Fourth Branch currently has no fruit, so we should pick the ripe ones, pack them up, and have the public car take them over.

At this time of year, the Third Branch is overflowing with pears, yangmei, plums, and various other fruits—more than we can eat. Last year, we made a lot of pickled pears, and they lasted all the way until this year’s new fruits ripened. The Third Branch feels as if it’s approaching the Thousand-year World, filled with happiness and gratitude.

Please enjoy the moments from this morning's picking activity.
