About pomegranates - My girls get pomegranates from my tree every day. I've learned the easiest thing to do is just start them by scoring around the top of the fruit so you can pull off the top end. Then you score down along the sections and the fruit pulls apart like an orange. Then I just...

After Thanksgiving, my local market was selling out the pumpkins at 99 cents each, so I bought several. My girls are going to be getting pumpkin every day until spring, I think. There are still pomegranates on the tree, so I give them a some every day. Let's just say, in the chicken world...

Mine got the same treat they get every day - pomegranate seeds. But today, I stood over them while they gobbled them down. I had always thought they just swallowed them whole into their crop, but today I learned better. They squish every seed which I discovered as my feet got a pink shower of...

I'm envious of all you guys who can get expired produce from your grocers. All my neighborhood grocers are from national chains. They don't give away anything. If it's spoiled, it goes back to the warehouse to be measured, weighed and disposed of according to corporate rules. Produce gets...

Not permitted to have a pomegranate tree? Why would they be prohibited? I live in the Inland Empire. Pomegranates are everywhere. They even plant them along freeway center dividers because they thrive with no water and a steady diet of exhaust. I can stand in my backyard and see p-trees in...

Mine got pomegranate seeds. It's a good thing they like them because my tree is groaning with fruits. They'll be eating pomegranates from now until Thanksgiving. (First post to BYC. Hiya!)
