Took my daughter for a walk this morning through the "Red Zone". After the earthquakes we had here in Christchurch a few years back, our government cleared a whole lot of residential areas that they deemed no longer suitable for housing. What we were left with is hundreds of sections with no houses but with still all the trees and gardens. Wasn't long until I stumbled across a few apple and other fruit trees. We're in the middle of summer at the moment so I'm looking forward to going on a few more treasue hunts and mapping where the best trees are. There are acres and acres to explore. Will hopefully get enough to juice to make a decent batch of fresh cider instead of the usual store bought stuff.

The picture below is only a small area. There is literally acres and acres of empty sections only 2 min walk from my doorstep!
