🌳💧 Think your lawn watering helps your trees? Well....umm...about that! 😬
We’re setting up at the Pomona Big Spring Home & Garden Show this weekend, but while we do, let’s bust a common myth! 🚫
Lawn sprinklers only soak the top inch of soil, leading to weak, shallow roots that can make trees unstable. 🌬️🌳
✅ The fix? Water deeply, not frequently—long drinks, not tiny sips! This helps roots grow stronger and sturdier.
Want to learn more? Visit our booth at the Pomona Big Spring Home & Garden Show! Our ISA Certified Arborists are here all weekend to answer your tree questions!
🌿 See you at the show! 🌳✨

Happy Monday, everyone! ☀️ We set out to capture photos of a stunning pear tree in full bloom—a perfect reminder that this is the most effective time to treat and prevent fireblight.
Instead, we were met with a peaceful morning filled with sunshine and birdsong. So before diving into the hustle of the week, take 20 seconds with us to pause, breathe deeply, and enjoy the soothing sounds of nature with us. 🌿🐦

Come out and see us at the Pomona Home & Garden Show this weekend!
In 2015, the Sims family purchased the heritage Meier Olive Orchard. This historical orchard began in 1912 with Thomas Watkins planting the trees as a condition of inheriting the property. In 1950, the trees came under the care of Robert Meier, who began producing high-quality olive oil until his passing at the age of 92 in 2009.
Sims TLC at the Meier Olive Orchard carries on high-quality olive oil production, now featuring two types of Extra Virgin Olive Oil: Mission and Manzanilla. For more information or to purchase our Olive Oil, please visit our website:https://www.tlcolives.com/shop
Today is a special day! We are honored to be a chosen stop during the annual migration of Turkey Vultures, Cathartes aura. Around this time every year, we are delighted to look up into our row of Eucalyptus trees and see them filled with these magnificent birds. We never know when, or if, they decide to make us a stop on their route, so when they do, it sure is a treat!
Some fun facts about the Turkey Vulture:
They don't make nests! They lay their eggs directly on the ground. Eggs can be found in places such as caves, burrows, hollowed logs, or under fallen trees.
Vultures will stand with their wings spread open. This is called the "Horaltic Pose" and it is believed it acts as a method for drying the wings, warming the body, and baking off bacteria.
They can live up to 20 years in the wild!
Their diet consists mostly of carrion (dead and rotting flesh) and scavenge for their food. They are not known to kill small animals.
Speaking of diet, their digestive juices kill bacteria, which is why they don't get sick from eating rotten meat. It is even theorized that when they defecate on their feet and legs to keep cool, it also acts as an antiseptic!
It is best to enjoy the presence of these amazing creatures from afar; they use vomit as a self-defence mechanism and can spray their vomit up to 10 feet!
They're visits with us are always short but sweet. Just a quick over-night stop and they're back on the road....err sky... by dawn.
It's one of our favorite times of the year and something we always look forward to here at Sims TLC, though our chickens do not share in same our feelings of joy.
