January heat wave

It is scion season again for the California Rare Fruit Growers (crfg.org) and our second daughter was born right in the middle of the exchanges. J went to a couple alone, and last weekend we went to the Sebastapol exchange. We tried to go to a couple of interesting places while we were there (the Yerba Mate factory and a Seed Bank), but they were closed. We did however try out the Petaluma Pie Shop and it was pretty tasty.
The warm spell we've been having has been beautiful for us, but confusing for our plants. Some of the trees are beginning to bud already. Our garden in front is sprouting California poppies and other wild flowers.
J is starting some seeds and rooting indoors. It is the cusp of spring and we are anxiously waiting for it!
