A spider weaving a web between two trees high in the air with the sun setting in the background.
Photo of the Day: Grapes near Harvest
We had an unusually cool summer which let the grapes take their time ripening. Now that cool fall nights are here, the fruit is finally finishing. Wine soon enough!
Photo of the Day: Beans and Tomatoes
Summer is gone, fall is taking over and the vegetables know it. We'll be eating a lot of bean and tomato dishes this winter!
Photo of the Day: Goldfinches at Breakfast
At the end of the season we always let the basil go to seed. This not only gives us seed for next spring, but it also give the finches something to snack on now.
Photo of the Day: Fence Lizard Up Close
Nothing like being sized us by a tiny dinosaur while you're working outside.
Photo of the Day: Cleveland Sage in Bloom
One of my favorite natives and sages. Salvia Clevelandii (Cleveland Sage) both looks and smells fantastic.
Photo of the Day: Our Rooster Twins
Last spring one of the hens surprised us with a matched set of roosters. Meet Jonesy and Riley.
Photo of the Day: Undercover Tomatillos
If you plant tomatillos once, chances are you're going to have tomatillos for years to come -- you just don't know where. I just discover not one, but two types growing in among the corn. It's like a salsa bonus!
Photo of the Day: Water Hyacinth in Bloom
The first bloom in the pond. We've been waiting all summer!
Photo of the Day: Ice Cream Bananas
After two years of growth, the ice cream banana has finally produced fruit!
