A fruity interruption

Listening to an audio book Sharon was interrupted by a knock on the door from a neighbour. His friend was outside with a trailer full of locally grown fruit and vegetables.

She got her crutch and hobbled out for a look. She bought four oranges, three red apples, two courgettes (zucchinis) and a cucumber - and was given a free gift of a big bunch of celery which measured 70cm from end to end.

The cost was 2.34 euros.

When you live in the Campo the fresh food means you don´t need vitamin C supplements – and the sunshine provides all the vitamin D you need.
