It’s been years since I had a front/backyard and the weeds on this place almost reach my waist. It’s a jungle here and normally most people would just turn away; me, man I’ve been fiending to pull weeds for over 10 years. I can’t wait to start mowing myself, but having issues with the gravel driveway and mixing in with the yard I don’t want to mow rocks and shoot a window/ect.

Whole city block filled with apple themed booths as far as the eye can see and it's packed to the brim with happy apple consuming customers.

    While you could get a "fresh apple" that wasn't harvested in our fall, about 5% of apple consumption in America is from importation. Canada is a different story. While they produce plenty of fruits, apple production has been in decline for several years.
    Chile is a large exporter of apples and they have their fall towards the beginning of the year, and they are Canada's second largest apple importer. He _could_ be eating fresher apples than ones harvested the year prior.
    Here's the search engine magic for apple storage on why you can consume them from a far-off date:
    "Apples are available year-round because they are stored in controlled atmosphere (CA) storage rooms after harvest. These rooms are temperature and humidity-controlled, and the levels of oxygen and carbon dioxide are adjusted to put the apples into a state of hibernation. This process slows down the apples' natural production of ethylene, which slows down the ripening process and senescence. Apples can be stored in CA rooms for up to 12 months, and can even continue to carry out chemical processes like taking in oxygen and creating energy while they are in storage."
