On Monday Gina Kim, with the Sacramento Bee, wrote an article on hedgerows that featured Hedgerow Farms. See the link below to read it:
She did a fantastic job of explaining how hedgerows can enhance farm land and create strips of habitat for a wide range of animals and insects.
The birds around the farm are one of the few assurances that it is spring. We have been watching some hummingbirds that have nested on site. Recently one moved out and left the second one in the nest. He has stuck around despite all the rain we have been getting.

There has also been a very territorial Rufous Hummingbird in the same area.
