A few native blooms we’re still seeing around the farm 🌿⁠
⁠
California fuchsia, hummingbird sage, California goldenrod, and California buckwheat are still blooming as we head into the cooler months.⁠
⁠
Native plants are an important part of our regenerative farm, providing food and habitat for pollinators and other wildlife while supporting the biodiversity around us. 🐝⁠
⁠
The extra heat this year has kept things growing a little longer than usual. As temperatures cool, many native plants shift their energy toward strengthening their roots, getting ready for spring.⁠
⁠
And with last year’s rain + this year’s heat, we’re seeing a lot more w**d growth this year.
⁠
We’ll see what the next few months bring!⁠

Fall fruit is coming! 🍂⁠

The seasons are starting to shift, and some of our favorite fall fruits are making their way into the orchards. Here’s a look at what’s coming up on the farm.⁠

Feijoas, also called pineapple guava, are small green fruits with a fragrant, tropical flavor.

They have a bright, slightly tart flavor with a soft, fragrant flesh.

Cherimoya has a green, scaly skin and soft, creamy flesh inside. Its flavor is often described as a mix of banana, pineapple and vanilla.

It’s one of those fruits that feels like a treat all on its own!

Jujubes are small, oval fruits that start out crisp and apple-like when fresh.

They have a naturally sweet flavor and can also be left to ripen further, when they become softer and more date-like.

It’s always special to see what we grow on the farm shared around a table, from our lemonade and seasonal produce to our pasture raised meats.

Great food, great company, and a taste of the farm in every dish.

Meet our new egg boxes!🥚

Newly designed to share the story behind our eggs —>

Our chickens spend their days grazing on fresh pasture and exploring the orchards.

Their mobile coop moves with them, giving the hens a safe place to rest at night and fresh ground to explore during the day.

And with our guardian dogs close by, the hens have a little extra company and protection along the way!

Each day, we collect their eggs by hand.

They’re taken to be washed and packed.

And ready to make their way to you!

Meet the Lamb Hass 🥑⁠
⁠
Our Hass avocados are taking a seasonal break, and now we’re welcoming Lamb Hass into the box.⁠
⁠
Known as the “summer Hass,” Lamb Hass is a larger, later-maturing cousin of the classic Hass. It has a broad, pear-like shape, dark green pebbly skin that turns purplish-black as it ripens, and rich, buttery flesh inside.⁠
⁠
It’s a cross between Gwen and Hass, and one of the varieties we grow to help extend our avocado season into the warmer months.⁠
⁠
And just like a classic Hass, there’s not much it can’t do. Slice it over toast, add it to a salad, mash it into guacamole, or keep it simple with a little salt.⁠
⁠
🌱 Lamb Hass is now available in our avocado box subscriptions - https://www.apricotlanefarms.com/shop/organic-avocados/ 💚⁠

This year, we expanded our pasture-raised egg program, which means we raised a lot more heritage breed chicks, and needed a home for them. So we converted these shipping containers into new brooder rooms, up top near our Native Plant Nursery. 🐓🥚

Scroll through to see how we built them, with lots of special features for our baby chicks! —>

Our animals are an important part of how we farm, from chickens and cows grazing the land to bees supporting pollination throughout the farm. Healthy soil, busy pollinators, and animals out on pasture are all part of the way we care for this land.

It’s all connected, and it’s what makes life on the farm so special. 🐝🐓🐄

Introducing NEW farm tours for kids – The Little Farmer Adventure! 🌱🐑🪱tickets launch this Friday in our newsletter. ⁠
⁠
Inspired by our school field trips, these new tours are all about giving families an opportunity to get outside, get a little dirty, and have fun together on the farm. Unlike our classic Farm Tours that are geared towards sharing how our regenerative farm works with adults, these new tours offer that information in a kid-centric way, with a focus on animals and hands-on learning opportunities. ⁠
⁠
On the tour, families will:⁠
🌼 Go on a pollinator scavenger hunt in the garden⁠
🪱 Dig into the soil and discover our worm friends⁠
🐄 Meet the cows, sheep, pigs, chickens and/or ducks⁠
🌿 Explore Pollywog Pond and hunt for more pollinators⁠
⁠
As always, because of our dynamic ecosystem, every tour may look a little different depending on seasonal rhythms. ⁠
⁠
🎟️ **NEW Family Farm Tours go ON SALE THIS FRIDAY!** Spots will be limited, so make sure you’re on our newsletter list for first access.⁠
