With the world feeling a bit uncertain at the moment we wanted to talk about some of the fragrances that help us feel better.Here's what we mention:Acqua Di Parma Colonia Il Profumo Millesimato ‘To mark the 110th anniversary… Expertly distilled over 24 hours and delicately fractionated, the 2024 harvest of Ylang-Ylang from Nosy Be amplifies the vibrancy of the citruses and gives density and depth to the perfume. Italian bergamot, blood orange, petitgrain and grapefruit open the composition with a golden freshness, while rosemary, orange leaves absolute, patchouli, and vetiver give structure and sophistication to this citrus aromatic creation.' Zara Jo Malone The Golden LullabyCreed Wild Vetiver‘Experience untamed elegance with Wild Vetiver, a composition sculpted by an unexpected harmony of timur berry, rose centifolia and noble vetiver.'(inspired by an English garden party wandering into the wild. Wild Vetiver is a fragrance off the beaten path, walking the line between precise refinement and nature. Born from noble roots yet spirited in its freedom, this sculpted composition reveals a vibrant tension between sophistication and wilderness. Opening with the spiced vibrancy of hand-harvested timur berry, the heart unfolds as rose centifolia rambles freely. At the base, vetiver casts a woody trail, grounding the composition with modern elegance. This is an enchanting journey through an aristocratic garden, where halcyon moments and the joy of missing out drift through the air.)Chloe Nomad Eau de Parfum NaturelJo Malone London English Pear & Sweet Pea ‘Sun-warmed orchards spring to life as tempting green pears fill the branches. The luscious fruits enveloped in softly scented pastel sweet peas, nestled on a base of powdery white musk.'“I can't help but smile when I wear English Pear & Sweet Pea. It's playful,subtle and instantly makes my day better.” – Lizzy JaggerJo Malone London English Pear & Freesia(Georgia May Jagger wears): ‘Orchards steeped in golden sunshine, warming the russet curves of luscious pears.

I feel I can reach for it every dayand wear it anywhere. It's really timeless.”– Georgia May JaggerVilla BullogniaMaya Njie Aethi Opum ‘When the rain subsides, black pepper, aidan fruit and vanilla warm up the earth with the sun. Aromas of coffee, vetiver and leather stir with thiouraye (churai) incense over formations of stone.The ancient keeper of lore secretly adorns itself with bark and leaves, its presence seen only by the vultures circling the skies above.'Black Pepper, Wet Earth, Aidan Fruit, Thiouraye incense (Churai) Vetiver, Papyrus, Coffee, Iris, Suede, Frankincense, Vanilla, Leather.Ormonde Jayne Bijou Zafran‘Celestial, A Spell in a BottleSaffron, red gold on skin, trailing fire spun in silk, flares like a comet in slow motion.It's not perfume.

Growers are considering rolling out drones which look like birds to protect their orchards. The Canadian-made drones are designed to look like falcons, and mimic the birds behaviour, to scare off other birds. As drought conditions persist in Victoria, birds have turned their attention to horticultural crops like apples and pears. Rural Editor Emily Minney spoke with Fruit Growers Victoria Grower Services Manager Michael Crisera about a potential rolloutSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
A new study has found there's been a major reduction in run off from Macadamia farms. Orchards using Integrated Orchard Management systems are recording a 95% drop in soil loss and 70% less fertiliser nutrient runoff. Rural Editor Emily Minney spoke to the Macadamia Society's Industry Development Manager Leoni Kojetin about the findings. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Brian is the 3rd generation owner of Red Jacket Orchards and, while reluctant to refer to himself as an entrepreneur, is absolutely one is the truest sense of the word. Brian has pivoted, several times, both prior to and after joining the family business. The most recent pivot, however, into focusing on the juice production and distribution, has proven to be the most fruitful (see what I did there?) as the juices are not distributed from "Miami to Maine".Mentioned in this episode:Connections PodcastConnections with Evan Dawson - Subscribe wherever you get your podcastsConnectionsJoe Bean Coffee - Coffee that lifts everyone.Use promo code Lunchador for 15% off your order! https://shop.joebeanroasters.comFood About TownFood About Town hosted by Chris Lindstrom, focusing on restaurants, food and drink of all kinds, and whatever topics I want to cover! https://foodabouttown.captivate.fm/Mind of MagnusCheck out Mind of Magnus at magnusapollo.com, and leave him factoids at 585-310-2473! https://mind-of-magnus.captivate.fm
One concern about growing cover crops is that they might compete with the orchard for water. This is an additional concern if you let cover crops continue to grow after bloom.

Welcome to episode 333 of Growers Daily! We cover: radishing HARD, and we'll take a question about weed control in the orchard. We are a Non-Profit!
Of the thousands of apple varieties grown in the U.S., only a small handful are actually bought and sold on a large scale. They have familiar names, like Honeycrisp, Gala, Fuji, Granny Smith and Red Delicious. But these hugely commercially, successful apple varieties tend to overshadow older, more unique varieties known as heirloom, or heritage, apples. Some of these apples are almost literally hidden, found in small orchards and sometimes growing in backyards or on roadsides. While less commercially viable, heritage apples have unique flavors, colors and textures, and their genetic information can be studied to make apples more resistant to disease and even to breed new varieties. The Washington state legislature recently introduced a bill that would task Washington State University with establishing a heritage apple orchard program. If passed, the university would create a registry of heritage apple orchards, documenting rare or lost apples throughout the state and providing resources to orchards that grow them. We’re joined by Matthew Whiting, a tree fruit scientist at WSU, to hear more about the significance of heritage apples and what a heritage orchard program could mean for the country’s leading apple producer.
Guest speaker Steph Spencer from 40 Orchards delivers a deep dive into the significance of day four during a season in the world where the need for people to participate is so important. How do we engage from a place of grounding rooted in love for our neighbors?
In This Episode, We Cover Why Sorbus domestica is often nicknamed "the chocolate pear" (and why that name actually helps people get it) What bletting means, and why sorbs can be delicious before they turn fully brown (depending on the fruit) The "custard stage" vs. fully bletted "medlar-like" stage (and how this relates to cider pressing windows) Ben's sorb travel finds across: Croatia (including fruit for sale at the market + trees growing in yards) Moravia (Czech Republic) — including the Sorbus museum and harvest festival France (sorb hunting with Arnold and tasting cormé/cormé-style ferments) Somerset, UK (a surprise roadside discovery!) Growth habits that can make Sorbus domestica look like an oak Why sorbs may matter in a changing climate: deep root systems drought resistance long lifespan later bloom time (less frost risk) Seed-grown vs grafted sorbs — and why Ben prefers genetic diversity (for now) The surprising reality: sorbs have already been distributed widely in the U.S. through seedlings What's being made with sorbs in Europe: brandy co-ferments with grapes wine experiments Time Stamps 00:00 Introduction to Sorbus Domestica 00:18 Meet the Podcast Host: Ria Windcaller 00:52 Exploring Sorbus Domestica: History and Uses 01:25 Cider Chat Episodes Featuring Sorbus Domestica 02:39 Sorbus Domestica in France and the US 04:05 Cider News and Upcoming Events 07:53 Interview with Ben Kunesh: Chocolate Pears 08:33 The Unique Characteristics of Sorbus Domestica 17:25 Sorbus Domestica Around the World 21:03 The Versatility and Adaptability of Sorbus Domestica 24:20 The Future of Sorbus Domestica in Orchards 25:49 Sorbus Domestica: A Historical Perspective 27:34 Ben's Travels and Discoveries 34:25 Exploring Sorbus Domestica Variations 35:30 Propagation Techniques and Genetic Diversity 37:29 Historical Context and Distribution 39:50 Nursery and Distribution Efforts 41:09 European Adventures and Discoveries 45:30 Tasting Sorbus Domestica Products 54:23 Future Prospects and Cultivation Tips 01:00:58 Conclusion and Final Thoughts

Husband-wife team Dr. .Susan Cordell and Dr. Pat Hart have made their conservation careers in Hawai`i since the early 1990s in their respective fields of native ecosystem restoration ecology and Hawaiian forest birds. In addition to Susan's research with the U.S. Forest Service Institute of Pacific Island Forestry and Pat's work on Hawaiian forest bird ecology at the University of Hawai`i at Hilo, the pair have undertaken the restoration of 20 acres of prime farm lands at their home in north Hilo since the early 2000s. Their son Colin Hart has led the transformation of former agricultural fields into the selection, cultivation, processing and selling of boutique chocolate for his company Honoli`i Orchards. The family describes their commitment to Hawai'i's land and people–from students learning about Hawaiian birds, to restoring endangered plants in native ecosystems, and finally cultivating the land to produce a homegrown agricultural product.

The boys crack open an Angry Orchard Hard Cider and things go off the rails fast. Stone shares his weekend at a southern plantation, which somehow spirals into a deep dive on Django Unchained and questionable historical takes. Jorge preps for his trip to Puerto Rico and Jake and Stone can't get over the bizarre way he eats fruit. The guys also check in on their fantasy football teams, where the stakes are high and the punishments for the loser are downright ridiculous.

Daniel Golder kicks off the annual Vision series with part one of Orchards' mission statement: Rooted in Jesus.
Ep 226 | This week on Discover Ag, Natalie and Tara dig into the headlines shaping agriculture, policy, and culture — with their usual dose of snark and sincerity. First up: The raw meat trend taking over social media. From carnivore to completely raw, influencers are eating uncooked steak, liver, and butter straight from the stick. The hosts explore why ex-vegans are leading this movement and what it says about our relationship with extreme diets and social media virality. Then, Cracker Barrel's $700 million rebrand disaster that wiped out Uncle Herschel and the iconic barrel — only to reverse course within days after massive backlash. Natalie and Tara unpack why nostalgia branding matters more than ever and how one comedian's take perfectly captured what went wrong. Next, CAT Construction nails viral marketing with their Taylor Swift engagement post, proving that sometimes the best brand moments come from jumping into cultural conversations at exactly the right time. Plus, the agricultural connections hiding in plain sight behind celebrity moments. And finally, California's almond industry faces an unexpected enemy: rats. With $300 million in damages and 100,000+ acres affected, this rodent invasion is threatening 80% of the world's almond supply. But is this crisis as new as headlines suggest? BUT WAIT — there's more! Stick around for an exclusive interview recorded live at Farm Progress with Case IH, diving deep into their newest Steiger 785 Quad Track — the highest horsepower tractor to date. From precision tech to operator comfort, Mark Burns and Kendall Quandahl break down what 853 peak horsepower means for modern farming. What We Discovered This Week
