Our picturesquee little village church.
Our village is rich in authentic traditions. Today, we had a Bulgarian Orthodox Christian ritual for sacrificing a sheep and blessing holy water for healing.

Chicoree flowers in my #foodforest orchard meadow. In the early morning hours, the flowers are delightful, shining like tiny blue lanterns. In the afternoon, the blossoms vanish, and only knobbly stalks remain.
Pollinators enjoy chicoree.
Do you have chicoree in your meadow?

My silk tree - albizia julibrissin - this year decided to wait out the summer heat before starting to flower. Here it is.
Albizia julibrissin trees look exotic, but are hardy and grow well in southern Bulbaria.

The figs in my #foodforest garden are ripe. It's a late variety, just starting now. Unlike most fruit in my garden this year, the figs from this tree have survived the April frost and the August heat.
I love eating fresh figs straight from the tree.

n this dry weather, bees desperately need water. If you can, put out a bowl of water. Add some stones or bits of wood for the bees to sit on, so they can drink without risk of drowning.

The number of bees coming to my bowls is enormous - see video. #permaculture #bulgaria #bees

#Butterflies are everywhere in my garden now. Thousands of them, and that’s no exaggeration.

I’ve created a butterfly #nature paradise here - with flowers the butterflies love (here: majoram) and no pesticides.

It’s all organic in my #permaculture #foodforest garden here in #Bulgaria.

😍I have a rescue dog staying here for a one-week trial visit, so my dog Ginger (also a #rescuedog) can decide if he likes this new companion.
Ginger is still undecided. But to my surprise, my #cats (also #rescuecats) like the dog and are practically stalking him. 🤣
