Help yourself!

Quite a few of these free apples around, in boxes, buckets & bowls.
No one seems to be taking advantage of the offers.
Egg for sale at £1 per dozen.
Scout hut & Methodist Church signs.

Three good things:
1. The library van came!
2. Dustbin day!
3. Paul the window cleaner has been!
Maybe the people in your area already have their own apple trees, Pat. Good to see your three good things are relatively simple, and as you say it's good to be grateful

Very nice.Perhaps everyone has an abundant supply

@busylady @carolmw Yes so many apples about this year…a glut!

We had to keep pressing apples on friends, relatives, workmen stopping just short of grabbing passers by. Can't throw 'em away and waste them though. 😂

@ellida We feel so guilty if we just let them rot….no apple trees in this new garden, well just crab apples!

Such a lovely idea - I only wish there were some around here and yet would I be brave to take a few of the freebies!!!!

Looks a nice mix of apples.. there alot of roadside giveaways here as well.. seems to be a thing that has come with covid.
Can you get Paul to come and do my windows 🪟.

@julzmaioro I’m sure he’d jump at it Julz if you paid his fare! 🤣

@beryl Well I think you might have some somewhere Beryl, it’s just finding them! I would bring you some if I was nearer!

These fruits look so good - nothing wrong with them! A thoughtful owner!

Lovely!

My parents used to often buy produce at folks' garden gates.

Did you take advantage of the free fruit?
November 1st, 2022  
@onewing No I didn’t this time Babs but have in the past. There was a box outside a house round the corner with proper Bramley cooking apples in it…I helped myself!

How odd. Funny thing - I know my eyes are bad - but I read your first good thing as the library van camel.....
November 1st, 2022  
we will forage when we see 'freebies'
November 1st, 2022  
Seems to good to pass up!

I’ve seen quite a few apples on walls, for people to take, windfall I suppose.

Must be a surplus around

We put grapes out in bags at our house as we were inundated this year! A few people took them, but not many. It's terrible to waste, but there are only so many you can use, unless you make wine. My freezer is currently full of them for making jelly in the future! Maybe we'll juice them next year. Lovely photo of this little country street corner.

@jamibann Now grapes are up a notch!! 😃

@maggiemae @tinley23 @quietpurplehaze @phil_howcroft @thewatersphotos @carole_sandford @bkbinthecity

A lot of surplus around this year, so much in fact that the apples are still there. It’s a nice idea. Thank you all for commenting!
