Question from a gardener re: wildfire ash in CA

last modified: 18 days ago

My sister in Santa Monica asked me to ask if anyone here has any experience/advice about harvesting and eating produce now. She forwarded an article that suggests things with thick rinds should be OK, but things you don't peel before consuming - like greens - wouldn't. I think there are a lot of gardeners with similar concerns.

She has an avocado tree, apple and lemons too, and a container vegetable garden.

I told her to be careful when harvesting too, to protect herself from ash fallout.
