Oranges

A few years ago the grandkids and I planted several citrus trees. The lime tree planted with Jayden is now about six feet tall and a branch was so heavy with limes it broke last fall. The orange tree planted with Sarah, Micah, and Seth is a different type of citrus and grows slower. We have a good crop this year. Sarah and Micah helped me juice some a few weeks ago. Yesterday I did another half gallon. They get sweeter by the day. The new variety, called Cara Cara, look like a navel, but have a redish flesh and are sweeter. We really like them. Come try one.
