Main Street Trees - Fruit Tasting

Our farm is hosting another Fruit Tasting this Sunday, Nov 30, 2014 at 3:00 if it is not raining. There should be around 20 fruits to taste such as 5 different pomegranates, fresh and dried persimmons, several citrus including Australian Finger Lime, Pineapple Guava. The $5 charge includes a partial farm tour of young and old fruit trees, demonstration of ecological farm practices, food grown in containers, backyard sized chicken coop and run made out of 2 discarded trampolines and more. Tell your fruit loving friends! We will try to hold this almost every week to learn and taste fruit and see how to care for and harvest year round by learning a little at a time and tasting what is ripe each week.

Our Farm - a View from the west side

 

This picture was taken from the Main Street side of the farm (vs the Beard Rd side). The very old barn has been earthquake retrofitted. Some of the other "buildings" are shade rooms and frost protection sheds to help keep the young plants happier. We strive to improve the farm and the light/shade situations for the trees each year. The big blue sky is so beautiful over our little farm and makes a lovely backdrop and view while caring for all the plants. Back here are young fruit trees and oak seedlings.
