520    $a Lisa's grandfather is turning 100. She wants to give him a very special gift. She hoped to tell him that his family would preserve the beloved apricot orchard he built with his own hands. The California orchard is the heart of Lisa's family and a reminder of its past. Like so many immigrants to America, Grandpa Joe and his wife fled from their country in one of the serial ethnic cleansings of the last century. Forced to leave Turkey for being Greeks, they arrived in the New World full of hope. A piece of land with a thriving orchard gave a new beginning to a new American family. To Lisa's bitter disappointment, everyone else in the family wants to sell. They all have busy lives and families of their own. True to her nature, Lisa is gearing up for a battle. Too bad she chose the worst moment to pick a fight with her only daughter, a tree expert who has fallen in love with the wrong man. Old divisions and a longing to hold on to tradition make it hard to see a path forward. But there are deeper ties that bind us all.
