The Carob orchard

Early November. Once the holes were filled in with soil and organic material, we started planting our little carob orchard. Impatient to see how it will look like in two or three years.

We selected three carob cultivars from Sr. Vieira in the Algarve: "Lami", "Cavi" and "Burro". And we will add other drought resistant trees around, such as fig trees or jujube trees.

Evening skies and jasmin smells
