New farm toys aren’t always tractors and such. This drone has four cameras that capture different spectrums of light so we can know more about our trees. Even down to nutrient deficiencies and pest issues. Still working out the issues but…EEK! πŸ€“πŸ‘©β€πŸŒΎ

Olives Love Sun, and So Do We!Β 

Olives love the sun!  And we get a lot of sun here in Central California, so our olives are super happy. And big!  (And still several weeks from harvest). 

Do you know what else loves the sun?  Solar panels!  So we are getting some of those too. We want to offset a lot of our energy use, and solar is the way to go!  We can’t wait to see these with the panels and up and running. 


Eek! 

Three years in the making….organic certified!

We just picked our first bin of organic late navels!   

 
We started the transition to organic on part of our acreage three years ago. It seemed like it would be forever till we were certified. Three years of higher costs of cultivation, yet sales as conventional fruit. But here we are. Certified!  

So look for Sunkist organic navels in the stores. They could be ours!
