Rain, and underneath the faint smell of decay. Fall is coming. I pulled the down comforter out of the cupboard last night, though I didn’t use it. I feel an animal urgency to put up the summer’s bounty against the coming dark. I want more time to go stomping through the blackberry brambles and scrambling up fruit trees, more time to gather and glean, to process, ferment, dehydrate, and can, but time is always short in the long days of summer. There’s bread to bake and deliver, and more bread after that. So if your garden is too much, if the figs are dripping with wasps or the apples dropping or the grapes rotting on the vine, perhaps we can barter bread for fruit? Or you could take a jam tithe. That would work, too.
