09.17.20 Fire Persimmons

To all of the climate change deniers out; my persimmons definitely know that something is amiss. The fires, the smoke, the exaggerated heat waves are encouraging this normally late fall producer to drop her fruit in mid September. I hope the rest hold out a little longer. In the meantime, I took some delight in the first Fuji persimmons dropping with fires blazing all around us.
