Trading In Goods Naturally Connected To The Site Of Their Origin
May I trade in goods that are naturally connected to the site of their origin?
Goods that are still naturally connected to the site of their origin are impermissible to sell until they are first separated, including, for example, fruit on the tree (unless the tree is first sold or the fruit first picked), wool on the sheep (unless the sheep is first sold or the wool first sheared), steel beams in a building (unless the building is first sold or the beam dismantled), milk in the udder (unless the animal is first sold or the udder first milked).
