Hey nuts,

I got an email about a soon to be bulldozed olive tree nearby and had to go for it. Total cost of the Day was $32 spent on an ax and I’m pretty happy with what I was able to collect. Some pictures below more the olive album I posted. If all goes well, I will have 5 new olives to start work on in the spring!

Sweet! You still have all your digits? How many olives do you have now?

@Ryan H hey my daughters NJHS group is going out to eradicate Salt Cedar on the rez next weekend. Going to tag along and see if there are any bonsai worthy trees I can pull up before they get sawed and treated. Will let you know if future exploration is needed. :):):)

Hey, would you send me a chunk.... please!
Yeah, me too!

Pretty cool that you can just hack them up like that and they'll root. I don't get to see many olives around here, but Bill has a nice one that he got as a stump with no roots. It is thriving.

I am now accepting trade offers:D:D:p I can’t wait to see them in spring when they really start pushing growth
