Salt mill clutches it

Grinds sweet pink Himalayan

Fine for food and me

I shall be a bee

And do what all good beez do

Have a long, hot journey ahead? Proper powder in our shoes makes the journey less tiring, and our feet appreciate it 🙂

We have trees: pears, plums, and apples on our little piece of the earth, 1 acre, here in the mountains. A few years ago, the UCSC agriculture students who visited and evaluated our soil and made recommendations said we have some of the best earth in California. After we modified some fencing and out-buildings to improve the airflow, our fruit is doing very well. They said the one big “IF” thing is, will you always have enough water? Our earth is drying, and the local water company is tightening watering restrictions. May the fruit live long and prosper.
