Under the Choko Tree By Nevin Sweeney

Choko Tree Friends - Dori's Mum

Dori and her family have lived on this 8 acre property in far western Sydney for over 30 years, but only her mother lives there now. They grow veggies, fruit and some nuts as well as having a few chooks and some grape vines. They used to do preserving and sausage and wine making etc but these days it is too much hassle for her mother. The front half of the property is developed whereas the rear paddock is just trees and grass, with a small shed which was there when they moved in.
