Hollister, California is a real town that has been around since the 1870s. Unlike the fictional town created by a corporate clothing company, Hollister is no where near a beach. The town is about 45 miles east of the Pacific Ocean. Seagulls occasionally make their way over the mountains. Hopefully, they are able to find their way back.

First Wild Mustard of the Year
This morning I saw an orchard on Enterprise Road full of wild mustard. I was quite surprised since there hasn't been rain since November.
The mustard seeds are used for making the mustard. I don't know if companies use wild or domesticated mustard plants. You can eat the leaves. Wild mustard tastes better. Yum!
Mustard as in the stuff you stick on hotdogs, never knew it grew wild
