Citrus Season

By Published On: December 4th, 20190.3 min readCategories: Photos

Rain and wind make for terrible growing conditions around the acre for everything but the citrus. For the first time in several years it looks like all the trees — navel orange, grapefruit, mandarin and tangerine — will be full of fruit this winter.

Navel Oranges just days away from fully ripe
Tangerines just beginning to ripen in December

All well and good. Not only do us people enjoy the fruit, but the ducks are big fans too.

Sage Osterfeld
I’m just a guy with nearly an acre of dirt, a nice little mid-century ranch house and a near-perfect climate. But in my mind I’m a landscaper survivalist craftsman chef naturalist with a barbeque the size of a VW and my own cable TV show. I like to write about the stuff I build, grow and see here at Sage's Acre.
