Sure, most of them are still green, but they'll surely ripen before the end of the month.

That's just the sort of climate we live in, and this spot is one of the warmest ones around.

 

You just have to look beyond the green to see their bright orange potential.

 

Now, we have to find a cool and dry enough spot for them that they won't rot,

and a warm enough spot that they won't freeze,

and a spot where the deer won't get at them.

Hmmm....
