There's a symphony of bees in my cotton willow tree. At least that's what I think it is. It's interesting and fun to move into a new place and get to know what's growing here and what kind of wildlife likes to visit.

Hey Bay Area plant geek friends-Check out this awesome opportunity!
CNPS is hiring! We're igniting our movement to restore nature one garden at a time, and we need a high-octane Outreach Coordinator to make it a reality. Sound like someone you know? Here are the details. http://bit.ly/2k4MGs8
Hi Everyone! I know I haven't posted in a while, and well it's because I've moved to the California foothills in Gold Country. Join me on my new adventure as I build a permaculture garden. Onsite are fruit trees- apples, figs, and walnuts. There is a giant composted pile. It has already snowed a couple times and another weeklong rain and snowstorm arrives today. This site will require pruning and thinning to start, which will give me much needed supplies for a Hügelkultur bed! I'm excited for the new beginnings and this weather is giving me lots of time to observe, contemplate, (create art) and plan for the future.

Camping fire starter kits! $4 each or two for $6. Great to start your evening fall campfire. Or get a starter with some kindling for $10, two for only $15. Doesn't it suck to get bonfire wood and not be able to get it going without a ton of lighter fluid??
? My special and natural fire starter will not disappoint. I will take video on my next trip this week to show you how awesome these are. I am also open to trade for farm fresh veggies & eggs :)

Borage for BEES. Another plant considered a w**d. I planted some, by my bell pepper starts. Since it's thought of negatively I'm sure just about anyone wouldn't mind if you knocked on their door asking if it were ok to remove some. Bees might even return the favor and pollinate the flowers of the food we grow.

Great reason to wear leather gloves and long sleeves when clearing out a garden. You may even find justification to keep some of the 'w**ds' around, especially in the far reaches of your property that you don't go to often. A lot of w**ds are actually host to beneficial insects, as well as nutritionally delicious like this one! I've cooked up the tender shoots like I would cook up any greens.
