Wait a bit longer before you clean up leaves and stems in the garden- somebody’s still using them!

Springing forward this weekend — it can’t come soon enough! Our new #nativeTNplants beds are going in soon…. thanks to @plantforhabitat

Tuesday Congress will vote on measures to solidify the wealth inequity in the US. I can call my TN congressman Any Ogles (who proposes we give Rump the option of a third term) but maybe YOU have a House Rep. who might listen.

We need to talk about what is NOT being cut.
This is the definition of cutting off your nose to spite your face- in the worst way.
Cutting off the path to preserving the beauty and wealth that belongs rightfully to our children. To pay oil barons so they will make a man king.

From the “Never Judge nature’s book by its cover” chapter on finding the beauty of nature in every season if you look closely- this is native TN plant commonly known as “frostweed” … often mistaken for trash by the road 😆❄️❤️

I find fall- even cloudy, oddly warm and brown- to be beautiful. A native bee likely tucked itself into the dried purple cone flow stem and goldfinches are snacking on the seeds. Evidence life goes about its usual business and doesn’t care the we’re so f***ed up.
Somehow that’s comforting.
