Citrus graft success!

I finally just noticed our citrus graft took in the front yard Mandarin orange. If I remember, the graft might have been Sudachi line. Happy Interdependence day!

Sunday for New Goat Baby Co-Parents

hillsidehomesteaders : A cuppa Hot Mocha with porcini and fresh mint for my co-goat parent, while he's picking browse for mama goat and soon-to-be-mama goat. Drying rose petals on paper as the roses are really blooming now & some fresh cut lupine flowers, given as a #Congoatulations gift! The goats are in our house and we moved our bed to the side of it. We sleep under the stars this week until we build a safe pen and I've been waking up the birds chirping away, the sound of hummingbirds (a morning visitor/buddy here) zipping around through the garden, Saru my cat snuggling me and the sounds of munching goats until the inevitable big head of Bettina pops over to ask what's up? What's for breakfast?
