Since we have been doing a super clean up of the farm in this fabulous weather (bright and sunny with no rain) I thought I would take this opportunity to share some pictures of the farm.  It is remarkable how great it looks when it is not all bushy with high grass!

When we first came to Belize, 10 years ago we ventured into the bush in search of rosewood seeds to start a grove on our farm.  Over years, there has been much logging of these magnificent trees and they are dwindling in number.  We have set up this grove as a “seed bank” so that there will still be opportunity to cultivate these trees in the future.  Our rosewood trees are looking good and gives a shaded place for a cool picnic area.

The first young fruits of the soursop have just started  which is a much-loved fruit of the Tropics:

And this is roseapple which tastes of rose petals.  They are actually very hard to spot because of the green colour…if only they would turn pink or red!  I think all of our resident birdies taste of roses since they are the ones eating most of them…

Last but not least, our lovely pond area where we would like to house a gaggle of geese!  One day, we shall have loads of geese a-honking in our pond!!
