minus-squaremasterofn001@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up13·4 months agoWe have Syrian, Iraqi, and others who have recently come to our country. (When I say we and our I also mean them) My fence is covered in grape leaves from about April to September. I get lots of people around the neighbourhood that come by to take them. Last year one old dude came and started picking them. I got up to say hello. He spoke no English. He said some things and made some gestures and I kinda got the gist. Went inside got him some water and a cloth. He drank and wiped his hands. Shook my hand and said habibi. I almost cried.
