Let me introduce you to a little New Zealand tradition called honestly boxes. Orchards and farms leave their freshly-picked produce in stalls on the side of the road. The fruits or vegetables, jams, homemade chutneys, or nuts are priced accordingly, and anyone driving by is free to take the produce in exchange for money, which is deposited in an honesty box.
Valerie and I are both big foodies, and we scored delicious pears, apples, zucchini, and peach-nectarine jam all along the main highway. And that beefsteak tomato in my hand - by far the best tomato I have ever eaten in my life.
