Daily reminder. 🌱
Plant a seed, any seed, TODAY. And tomorrow, and next week, and the week after.
Keep planting until you grow something. ANYTHING.
You don't have to replace all your groceries, but at least TRY to replace ONE THING you currently buy.
It can even be just herbs! 🌿

Since this news story is popular with you people, here's a reminder that naming species after monstrous humans is a bad idea and a big problem.
The species in that preview is the Hitler beetle. Neo-Nazis have robbed museums and threatened people trying to get a specimen.
