Ok. This is the big news over here: I am in the midst of a rebrand and a shift in focus. Starting tomorrow we are going all in on Resistance Gardening — and I hope you will join me! Gardening is an act of resistance.
I will be outside watering my plants today. Sounds a little strange, but we are having a very warm, very dry winter. And winter watering is particularly important for your trees and shrubs — and anything you planted relatively recently. So here are some winter watering tips!

This week I deleted my TikTok platform entirely. I didn’t make a grand announcement. I just did it. And it felt good. Now I have to figure out the next. But I won’t be part of that grift ever again.

It’s midnight.
No work.
No school.
No shopping.
And no social media.
Today we are caring for our neighbors. Taking what steps we can to show our solidarity.

Reading instead of doomscrolling tonight. @blossomandbranchfarm has her first book out this week — rough week to debut! But The Regenerative Gardener’s Handbook is a solid primer on regenerative farming practices as applied on her flower farm (which is GORGEOUS).

Happy Pride and Prejudice Day!! Jane Austen’s second book, Pride and Prejudice, was published on this date in 1813. For all of the 💩 in the world right now, the fact that a 213 year old novel written by a woman is celebrated like this is wonderful! I intend to spend time reading today.

Take a few moments today to breathe and visit a real, untouched prairie with me. Only 4% of North America’s prairies remain — a tragic number. But as Piet Oudolf’s Prairie-Style gardens influence garden styles (including mine), I think it’s worth taking a peep into a real, honest-to-goodness prairie

Today on my Substack: a peek into our New Years traditional house party. And why I would argue that a house party can be a tool of resistance — and one of the best ways to build friendships.🩷🥂🩷

Renee Good was a poet. Let’s remember her through her words and her work. Here is one of her poems entitled “On Learning to Dissect Fetal Pigs.” It’s about the tension between science and fundamentalism.

Minnesota is a beautiful state. I lived there for ten years — first as a college student and then as a young adult. I would move back tomorrow. I have chosen to live in blue states as an adult having grown up in a red one. Frankly, there is no comparison.

Today I am celebrating one of my all-time favorite writers: Jane Austen. Today is her 250th birthday, and I would argue that she is just as relevant today as she was in her era. Grab a cup and tea and have a read… ❤️

We alternate between putting our tree in the Family Room and in the Dining Room. It's one of the ways I keep things feeling fresh and different during the holidays. Lots more peeks into our home for the holidays:

We are doing this again on Saturday, and I have a post full of Tools for Resisting. My mom will be at her first protest in a long time, and I wrote this guide for her — and for anyone else feeling hesitant about showing up. There are lots of ways to resist on Saturday. But we MUST be out in force!
