I don't know if by this time we still have people who are ignorant of the reasons why they should eat/add fruits to their meals.

Not so many people are aware of the fact that it is not the quantity of foods we eat but the quality. We need the carbohydrate, proteins, fats and oils and most importantly minerals and vitamins.

The first categories of food are easy to get whole in order to get some Minerals and Vitamins into our bodies we need to take in fruits.
Some foods contains some minerals that our bodies needs while other minerals and vitamins can only be gotten when we eat fruits.

Some of the hindrances why people don't eat fruits is that these fruits are expensive, someone will prefer go purchase a wrap of food for $1 rather than purchase an apple for the same amount. If fruits are expensive can't you try to grow some

There are different species of pawpaw and in order to get quality fruits and at the right time we have to plant quality seeds. Having seen how very much productive this specie is I have gone out again yesterday in search of the owner of this Gardner to seek for some pawpaw fruits from his garden to plant at home.

This is not the Agricultural Engineered specie nor the dwarf type but it is growing so well and very much impressive. The number of fruits produced by a pawpaw tree can determine how fruitful it is or not.
There are two kinds of pawpaw where we have the female tree, the make tree while some are bisexual.
We need a single male tree around to fertilize the females trees and if one is lucky it will be better to plant the bisexual one.
