The Maywood Fig Farm

I don't deliver to this consignee very often but when I do its always a pleasure to arrive at this secluded farm located in the Northern California town of Corning. This 265 acre farm (named Maywood Farms) is owned and operated by Bob and Karen Steinacher and you can visit their farm by going to their website at http://maywoodfarms.com/ The pictures show a part of the orchard and figs drying in the sun.

My Greeting Crew

These two are truly old timers and can barely make it out to my van when I arrive at this stop. But they always seem to be so happy to see me and get their treats. There use to be three but one went to dog heaven not long ago. (Just click on the picture for a larger view).

At Last! A Snow Capped Mountain

It is so nice to see snow on Mt Shasta after the long blistering hot Summer we're had here in the Redding area. And the little rain that we had a couple of day ago sure was welcome. This picture was taken from my front car window on I-5 Northbound at the weigh station in Cottonwood (just before the turn-off for Lake California). (Just click on the picture for a larger view).
