Just a garden.
🚴🏼♀️This September, I am riding 100 miles in the Great Cycle Challenge to fight kids' cancer...
Right now, over 15,700 American children are diagnosed with cancer every year... and 38 children die every week.
Kids should be living life, NOT fighting for it.
Please make a donation and support my 100 mile challenge to end childhood cancer and save little lives.

I have a few signs left from summer markets if anyone is interested! 🌱
🌟 Exciting discovery at The Rego Ranch! 🌟 Old Mac Rego has found four vibrant Anise Swallowtail caterpillars munching away on our dill! 🐛 These striking larvae, with their black, white, and yellow stripes, are a sure sign of Anise Swallowtail butterflies in the area. If you spot similar caterpillars on your dill, fennel, parsley, or rue, you’re likely observing the early stages of these beautiful butterflies. Nature’s wonders right here at The Rego Ranch! 🌿✨
Hi friends and family,
I’m reaching out to you because I know some of you are deeply involved in our community's gardening scene. Every Mon. & Tues. I compile the events for the Santa Cruz Sentinel Home & Garden Digest.
As someone who appreciates the beauty and importance of gardening, I am constantly on the lookout for events, workshops, and gatherings. If you have any upcoming events or know of any happening in our area, I would love to hear about them.
Happy Gardening,
Jesselyn

💡 DID YOU KNOW? Honey isn't just sweet nectar; it's a powerhouse of benefits! 🍯✨
🧠Enzymes in honey make it a brain booster, but did you know metal spoons kill those enzymes? Opt for wooden or plastic spoons for maximum benefits! 🥄
👅Honey isn't just tasty; it's a lifesaver! One teaspoon can sustain a human for 24 hours!
💪 Bees are the real MVPs! They work hard, visit 1,000 flowers, and produce less than a teaspoon of honey in their short lives! 🌸🐝
🐝 Forget expiration dates! Honey lasts forever! 📆
History lesson: Ancient emperors preserved with honey! 🏛️🍯

Did you know skunks have a taste for bees and their delicious honey? 🦨🍯 These nocturnal foragers pose a threat to your apiary, as they can raid hives, devouring both bees and their precious honey reserves. 😱 To prevent skunk attacks, elevate your hives on stands with slick, metal legs, making it difficult for skunks to climb. Additionally, consider installing motion-activated lights or sprinklers to deter these pesky intruders. 🚫 🌼
We are an urban mini ranch, specializing in honeybee products and heirloom seed to table veggies, starts, herbs, and flowers.
Don’t forget the honey, Honey!

🌻Each sunflower is actually thousands of teeny flowers.
🌻The blossom of the sunflower is called a head.
🌻The yellow petals and fuzzy brown centers are actually individual flowers themselves.
🌻As many as 2,000 can make up the sunflower bloom.
🌻The petals we see on

🐝Pollen loads come in many shades of yellow, white, orange, pink, blue, gray, green and purple. The subtle variations in color often give us a clue as to where the bees foraged. 🧠 Until I noticed the gray on this bee I didn’t even know! Can you figure out which tree this bee may have foraged from? Check the link below. https://metrobeekeepers.net/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/PollenColorChart-Sheet1.pdf
