Mmmm, perfectly moist and exquisitely delicious sun-cooked cake. (Yes, we're bragging.)
We use the sun-cooker everyday (that it doesn't rain), and everything just tastes better! Even our chicken's golden gifts are more flavorful sun-fried.
Not to lose balance of important driving forces, there is also the power of Water, which has been very present this rainy winter. Here is Taca modeling his/her new stick-perch by our house, passing the overnight rainstorm huddled under a banana leaf, meditating no doubt.

They are just so pretty!
By the rivers, the flowers dance and burst.
But... the evil elephant grass is also celebrating the rain. We are clearing it out of the field, and we have high hopes that this will be the year of eradicating it completely, so that our crops can thrive without being choked out by its dark selfish forces.
We are also steadily working on several other projects. Here, we've broken ground on the new cabin planned to built with mud and love with our incoming interns:
Other happenings: the calendulas are stretching open in the medicine gardens:
We love Plantain!
