I live between Chico and Forest Ranch, and I cant decide what Zone I live in.....pretty close to an 8.......
I am at 1500 feet elevation, I get snow every few years, but not much, just a few inches. I live on a separate ridge from Paradise and Forest Ranch, called the Doe Mill Ridge, and we have a kind of Micro Climate here, and we get winds between 70-80 mph.....Very little shade, except what I've grown or from fences or out buildings....
So I'm here in California somewhere!! Nice to meet you!!
Hi, I'm in Bakersfield. Aren't things looking beautiful around here. We have to enjoy it while we can. Too soon it'll be dusty and brown with just our gardens to make us smile.
