Neighboring Orange Grove
We have an organic farm across the dirt road from us and an orange grove to the north and to the east of us. We have a neighbor to the south, but she has orange trees and a fence between us so we don’t see her house, which is a quarter of a mile away.
The sun was out and the bees were busy today. Also, we saw many hummingbirds darting from orange blossom to blossom, doing their job.
A lovely day to be outside. Those kumquats and Satsuma tangerines are delicious, by the way. Sweet, full of Vitamin C, and right off the tree. Hard to beat…
