On Sunday, my wife and I harvested some ripe persimmons off our two persimmon trees and took some photos while at it.

what we use to cut the persimmons down.

A closer look at the persimmon tree.
Persimmons are riper at the top for some reason.

What we managed to harvest before I threw in the towel.

Eating too much persimmons can cause constipation.  Since I enjoy being an easy going fella, I don't eat persimmon.  Half of the harvest are for my wife and son.  The rest goes to our friends and neighbors.  The best way to eat persimmons is to ripe them until they turn red (called hong-shil in Korean) and then freeze them.  This way you can eat them like ice cream any time.
