token harvest from the garden..

i say token on purpose because i feel really bad about it, the rest of the apples on both trees were left to fall on the ground and rot away, i always feel bad about just letting them die,, i get huge harvests from them every season although one season i get a lower yield but still enough to feed lots of people with apple pies.
the whole street was built just after WW2 so people who moved into these house all planted, plum,apple,peach,pear trees in the gardens so the whole street is blessed which so much fruit and i know for sure most people on my street never eat the apples and just let them rot on the ground, we cant even give them away for free nobody wants them coz they have surplus themselves..
i was talking to one friend who lives in the 3rd world and she was saying apples are are expensive in her country that they only buy them once a week as a treat, and i have so much surplus in my garden enough to start a small business in the 3world selling apples..
feel bad though, i have so much and others dont...
