The results of our CDFA Healthy Soils grant and our first native pollinator hedgerows planted about 6 years ago. Redbud in full bloom adds habitat and multiple benefits to our farm. We now have planted 11 miles on farm thanks to Xerces, CDFA and Nestle.

Onion harvest is in full swing at Terranova Ranch, central California. Terranova partners with Harris Fresh to provide healthy, nutritious food for families across the USA. Unfortunately, prices are just above break even this year. Go California Grown!

My golden, Lily, loves to eat walnuts this time of the year! Leaves the shell, just eats the nuts. We’re harvesting our last field next week.

We’re into excellent organic tomatoes @Terranova Ranch this year. We pick 24/7 to supply our cannery. In the evening the aroma of fresh, ripe tomatoes fills the air providing wholesome foods for all of the families in the USA and other countries. CA produces 1/3 of world supply.

We flipped the switch today for the first time on our 450hp pump that takes floodwater off the Kings River, 70,000 gpm, and will help prevent flooding downstream. The water will be put on our fields and recharge the aquifer. A real win for the Kings Sub-basin.

“There’s another option, and that’s to put it in the ground, where it could help to replenish groundwater supplies.”
But you have to capture the storm flows before they go to the ocean.
California has seen so much rain over the past few weeks. But with so much runoff in the middle of a drought, it begs the question — why can’t more rainwater be collected and stored for the long, dry spring and summer when it’s needed?

Folsom Dam protects Sacramento from flooding, but California needs to save more of this precious water. We need to expand or add storage capacity on this river to help us get through drought years, which are sure to come.
📣Releases from #Folsom are increasing today beginning at noon from 25,000 to 35,000 cfs to make room for incoming flows! Heed caution along the #LowerAmericanRiver!

One advantage of living in California is pulling carrots out of our field at Terranova Ranch for Christmas dinner. Merry Christmas everyone!

Our #carbonrobotics laser weeder came in today at Terranova Ranch. Looking forward to cleaning up weeds in our carrots, onions and tomatoes this fall and next spring with lasers. Technology in agriculture!
