avocados galore!

We have an avocado tree at the school that has started producing those big green Dominican avocados. Though you may not believe from the pictures, these avocados are actually quite small. There have been some people coming in at night and stealing avocados from the trees, so the next day at class a handful of kids decided to help get some of them down. They climbed up the tree and shook the branches (maybe not the safest idea…) so that they would fall to the ones catching them below. After collecting the avocados that had fallen we put them in a sack and carried them inside the school to use for our feeding program. So good!!
