That's a good one. Extra bonus for the orchards near Blenheim: there isn't much tourism so the produce is far cheaper than the grocery store.
I actually grow a lot of my own fruit. Strawberries in May, mulberries in June, raspberries in July, grapes in August/September, and hopefully this year, pawpaws and kiwis. I used to have peaches and apricots, but my trees got fungus and died. Not going to replace them since I can just ride my bike down the street and get fresh ones.
