We expanded our orchard and planted an orange and a lime tree in the bright moonlight last night - a dream come true! Let's hope they'll be doing okay with our winds here. I love how the young orange trees have spikes for protection, which they shed once they are strong enough. We also find the occasional fresh, wild asparagus growing on the land.

The natural diversity on the land there is amazing! 😻
Yeah thanks, we are also amazed to see what's possible. Usually the area around here is arid and rocky. But our dream is to kind of 'reforest' the land and make it a humid garden-like paradise even in the hot and dry summers. It'll take some years to enrich the soil and get some smart off-grid irrigation going. We shall see! There are some other inspiring examples out there to learn from in similar climates.
Beautiful!
