Estancia Los Potreros

Lou has been working hard on the organic vegetable garden. The early spring sunshine has finally encouraged her ‘winter ‘ vegetables to come to life!

After what has been an unusually cold winter, we have been delighted to see this week the first signs of spring. The first blossom has appeared and all of the trees are now in bud.

We have bought and planted another 30 fruit and nut trees, and Teleri and Lou are also busy setting about the vegetable gardens, although there is no sign of our first spring rains as yet. Other than that, we are waiting expectantly for the first foal to be born, we think in the next week or so, and there is also one very pregnant fluffy cat wandering around . . .!

Robin and Teleri have just bought 100 new trees for the estancia, as part of our ongoing commitment to protecting natural resources and responsible tourism. With the wetter than usual summer that we had this year the trees should do well, and will be in the ground just in time for the first rains of spring.
