It was spontaneously after my departure that I had the idea of talking a little about the situation at Flores de Vida.
\nWith one exception so far, I’ve been coming to Nat’ every year since 2012, around the beginning of May, and for a few weeks I’ve enjoyed this special place and contributed a little to its continuity and beautification.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

This time, due to other projects on my part, I’ve only stayed for a month, so I’ll be missing not only the first figs of the year, but also the big crop of apricots and plums that has just begun in earnest.<\/p>\n

The food<\/h2>\n

\"The<\/a>
The large strawberry patch<\/figcaption><\/figure>Unfortunately, strawberries and cherries were not as abundant this year. The strawberry plants are in good condition, but the few fruits have not really ripened.<\/p>\n

Some of the cherry trees at Flores de Vida bore fruit for the first time this year, and the older ones too, but the birds are always far too quick and empty the trees before the fruits are fully ripe. At our friend Javier’s farm, where we used to fill up our boxes and ourselves several times a season with the best cherries we knew, there was hardly any fruit this year. It was just enough for a meal and a snack ; )<\/p>\n

On the other hand, the goji bushes surprised us. Not only did they bear fruit for the first time, but they also produced a lot of fleshy fruit, so we both ate more fresh goji than ever before. It was just the two of us the whole time.<\/p>\n
