Work Together and Have Fun Picking Pears

We worked together...
...and look how many we got. ~Hunter

The Sweet Olives

The Romas


The Sugar Lumps


The Brandywines

Who is in my group is Emma, Ben, Alivia, Hunter, and Solomon. ~Emma


Working together!


Building together!

Perseverance!

Emma and Alivia are working to make the pear picker with pipe. ~Ben


Do you see Ben and Solomon? You probably do. You see them working together? Well I do! Work together because you get more pears. If you did it by yourself it would be harder because you couldn't reach really as much pears as you could with help. ~Ramsey

Tommy is having a lot of fun. So have fun when you can. Working together and having fun is one of the most important things in pear picking. ~Ramsey

Look! Siobhan, Connor, me, Aubryana, and Gage are doing team work. Me and Siobhan are trying to get the pears. Gage and Connor are spotting the pears. ~Aubryana


Colby is so excited. He got a pear with friends and Alivia works so hard. Once she gets one she goes again. Smart girl. We love her so. ~Aubryana

What a good team! Alyssa and Alyssa. They are holding the first pear they ever got. Work together, because you know what, this won't work if you don't. If you do you will come home with a basket full of pears. The first time I tried to pick pears it was all wrong. I felt like a pit of snakes. But the last time it was really fun. Friends helped and we were successful. I think you will be too. So if you want pears for lunch and listened to the rules you are good. Have fun!~Aubryana


Team work! Cheering on and helping me to get a pear off of that stubborn tree. It's so hard to get a decent pear these days. If you have not read 'health and safety' yet, go there now. ~Aubryana


Take turns picking pears. ~Hunter


Alyssa and Tommy are picking pears. ~Ben


The author of 'health and safety rules' is working so hard with friends to get it right and save the pear from falling to destruction. ~Aubryana

  1. Dear Barn Swallows - I loved looking at the pictures of you making pear pickers and working together to pick pears. I loved EVEN MORE reading everything that you had to say about your great pear adventure. It makes me wish that I had some pears to pick right now! But it's late October and all the pears on my pear tree have already been picked. Next year, I will know what to do! Thanks, Barn Swallows.
    love,
    Karen
