One of the pleasant discoveries on Die Weide is a native pecan tree in the pasture. We guess it's native because the nuts are a bit on the small side for a cultivated pecan. However, what's odd is that pecans usually grow near streams and rivers and this one is in the middle of a pasture on a hill.
So, taking advantage of this tree's size and location, we moved an unused picnic table from home to under the tree. This has become our base of operations and the pecan tree will anchor the orchard we will plant, hopefully starting this coming spring.
