Prickly Pear - Wood sorrel - 

 both the green pads a bit tart but edible right from the ground

 and pink fruits are edible.

Pecan tree - Chile Pequin -

Pecans are a sweet type of nut, This is a type of pepper. They’re very spicy 

They’re very good right off the tree and can be used in salsas

Due to construction of a new fence, the two cows and two sheep were moved to a temporary new area. Here’s some pictures of Johnny and Howdy, settling into their transitory shelter (which includes a loafing shed!)

 The two sheep, Kale and Nova, were shaved recently and there’s a huge bucket of their wool that will be sold to support our school, so they look a bit bald right now!
