We have black Labrador retrievers who will be ready for their forever homes on July 14th. AKC registrable, OFA’s are excellent, good and normal. Genetics are clear and non-dilute. Sire and dam are solid hunters with great on/off switches. Sire is a titled master hunter who qualified for both the 2019 Master Nationals and 2019 Master Amateur. Dam is an excellent marker, has good trainability with outstanding prey drive. We are searching for active hunting/outdoor homes for these puppies. DM for more info.

My yard in Jan. 2022, versus today. Still lots to do but thankful for the life my garden breathes into me.

Hello Dixon gardeners,
Just a quick reminder that one week form today Sustainable Solano will be hosting a tour of my front yard. Come learn how we transitioned from lawn to a water-wise, sustainable landscape. Local permaculture designer John Scott (https://johnscottlandscaping.com/) will answer your questions about rain water catchment, swales, healthy soil, native plants, food forests, and irrigation.
Our yard attracts bees, hummingbirds, and birds galore, while providing us with food (artichokes, nectarines, peaches, avocados, lemons, oranges, figs, mulberries, persimmons and more). We hope to see you there!

We have fresh chicken eggs at our food stand. If you haven’t tried fresh eggs before they are so much better than what you will find in the store! Give them a try. $4/half dozen.
