LOADED ZEITOUN TREES, RAMPANT SLAOUI AND WAGON LOADS OF MULCH


If you zoom in here you can see the abundant 
crop of olives we have this year.



These plants are a squash that is called slaoui here, and bottle gourds in other areas. They are so lush and beautiful. Abdoul has eaten a couple already and he said they were delicious.


I saw a bunch of olive trees that had been cut down on a 
neighboring property and asked if I could buy the smaller 
branches with the leaves. I will use them as mulch, fertilizer and 
in the compost. I had four of these wagon loads delivered. It will 
be a tremendous amount of work, but worth it. I hope.
