Watering, watering, watering… This is my life right now. Today I planted another maile vine next to a solitary one I planted a while back. As I mentioned before, they like to grow with each other intertwined in the shade.
Most of our mature cacao trees are loaded with flowers right now. I found out that this week is national pollinator week. After I looked into it more I discovered that there is actually an organization that will certify a farm as a Bee Friendly Farm or BFF certified! How much would it affect your buying decisions if a product said it was Bee Friendly Certified or Grown On A Bee Friendly Farm on it?
