This ‘Jack Fruit’ photograph has been clicked by me sometime in June when I had visited Nawabgunj with Dad. I was in awe, just to see soooooooooooooo many full blown Jackfruits growing… huddled together on a single branch.
This tree and scores of other trees, including different varieties of Mango trees, growing in this Orchard have been planted by my grandfather and my father, the fruits of which.... we, our family, our friends, & the local villagers @ Nawabgunj have been enjoying year after year......
Whoa! Felt good just to capture the moment and the memory in the snap and relive it again, while I share it here on my blog today.
“I believe that we have all at some time eaten the fruit from trees that we did not plant. In the fullness of time, when it is our turn to give, we must in turn plant gardens that we may never eat the fruit of, which will benefit the generations to come. I believe this is our sacred responsibility, one that I hope you will shoulder in time…..”
