Back when I was younger, I used to play a computer game that was quite unique. I think it was called “Harvest Moon”, and it was basically a farm simulator. It might not sound like there’s so much fun involved in such concept, but the purpose of the game was to keep track of the usual day-to-day farm activities: milking cows, chopping wood, planting vegetables…. and boy, did I enjoy doing that. I remember playing this game and dreaming how nice it would be to own a real farm and live that simple kind of life – no stress, no worries, just nature and good old manual labor. Can you imagine how thrilling it would be to have your own sun orchard and just go out in the morning and pick up fresh fruit for breakfast?

Well, obviously I no longer entertain dreams of actually owning a farm – especially because I recognize there’s a good chance I couldn’t handle all the hard work. But still, the thought of getting freshly picked fruit still sounds quite interesting; with that in mind I’ve been looking around for a good sun orchard that will make deliveries in the city. Well, but I guess these kind of dealers only sell in bulk, so I have slim chance of getting into business with one of those. Regardless, I was thinking it might be nice to make a little field trip one of these weekends and go find out. Has anyone ever been to an actual real-life orchard, lately?
