Sweet potato harvest started today; a total of 45 pounds was collected. The bed was only watered every 10 days or so, due to the current drought. The largest bunches occurred because an olla was set between the plants. Slow and continuous seeping water produced excellent results.

 March 2022 Workday - sunny and warm and very nice turn-out for some spring house cleaning. 

Here's Derek and Izzy, digging in. 


Elaine and Stella, with Sue looking on, rooting out a bumper crop of weeds. 


Erica, Sue and Rebecca are digging the sunshine, too.  

Winter monsters harvested. We're waiting on the "coleslaw" experiment results.

It's a beautiful February Workday and we're cleaning out the orchard. Non-producing trees like the almonds and sickly trees like so many of the apples are headed for the compost bins. Our intrepid tree removal team is on the job! Master Removers, Kristen, Erin, Hunter and Jonas really dig in.
