Resistance through vegetables! 🫑 🥕 Resistance through flowers! 🌻🐝 Resistance through acts of self-reliance! 🐓🍞🔨 Keeping a flame 🔥 of joy alive inside of us. Photo from a previous year. Looking forward to starting seeds again; the miracle of watching them poke their tiny heads through the soil. 🌱

Good morning from this catbird 🪶📷🌿🌎

Many gardeners from beginner through experienced are shopping for seeds now. Jon’s thread of #easygrowing is a great idea! Adding a few of my easy to grow favorites in my comments.

Foxgloves in Watercolor A grief paining I did a few months back.

It was a treat to watch Fernanda sleathfully wait for her meals. #gardening #Invertebrates

*stealthfully....oops!

I've made five family dinners with veggies mostly provided by this thing since I started on 12/16 with *super* low expectations. I can see how people wind up with dedicated indoor growing spaces. Not sure how far I'll go in that direction. (Lol)

Week 5 indoor greenhouse. I need to harvest, thin and pinch back. I can't believe this is working so well, and it smells so dreamy when I mess around in there because of the herbs. 🌱

Good night! Oíche mhaith! | I’ll leave you with some Pasque Flowers & Cowslips as I try to slip off into a subconscious world. Imbolc Shona Daoibh go Léir! | Happy St Bridget’s Day from Ireland.

I use yarn and other fibers and fabric manipulation techniques to make coats

The Great Migration. Happy Black History Month and beyond! #BlackHistoryMonth

I met David Hogg days after the Parkland shooting and I’ve watched him develop into the leader he is today. David is exactly the kind of person we need guiding the Democratic Party into the future and I’m proud to support his candidacy for DNC Vice Chair.

Found my old #compostable phone case in the worm bin the other day! Looks like the #redwigglers are slowly but surely doing their job to break it down! This is a flax based phone case from Pela. #zerowaste #compost #wormfarm #gardening

I saw my first bumblebee of the year out in Edinburgh on the 22nd of Feb. If this year is the same then its not long to go before they're back! Here's a Buff-tailed queen bumblebee from that week #FridayBee #Fridaybees

Did you know there’s a #FridayBee thread now. It might be just what I need to get through this bleak phase before #beeseason! So here’s my bee for #Friday. #bufftailbumblebee #queen feeding on #courgette flowers! #fluffybum

Not as pretty but…

🌱 This is how I was "groomed" to love flowers. 🌸🌼🌷 #FlowersOnFriday #gardening #flowers

20 Day Plant Challenge Choose 20 plants that have stayed with you or influenced you. One plant per day for 20 days, in no particular order. No explanations, no details, just photos. Day 20/20. ‘Challenge Complete’ #PlantChallenge #gardeningfeed #bloomscrolling Day 4 Agapanthus

This week I had my first try at baking sourdough focaccia for a dinner party. Kneadless to say… I bubbled with joy. Also, I’ve decided to name my starter ‘The Rise of Wisley’. #sourdough #bread #sourdoughbread #breadsky

First tap and we have first sap! An auspicious sign for the sugar season for sure. Not all of the trees are running yet as it's only 35 F and we've had a bitter cold week, but they will soon. We use a combination of Red and Sugar maples, so we end up with a unique small batch syrup for Snake Hill.

Yay, my Native Plants of NC stickers are back in stock! (another top notch job from @stickerninja.bsky.social 💜💜) And now they're in two sizes: one for your car bumper, one for your notebook, so you can easily be identified as a native plant nerd wherever you go.

My downy wood mint bloomed this past summer, and it was a pollinator magnet🧲 I grew it from #PrairieMoon seeds the previous year and planted them in multiple part-sun areas around the yard🐝 What a fantastic, versatile, and bee-loving native🌱 #blephiliaciliata #nativeplants #nature #gardening #bugsky

I heard it’s #mushroommonday so here are some oysters I grew last winter. I’m definitely hoping to start some more again really soon! It’s so nice to have something growing when it’s -20C outside! #fungifriends

Who else has struggled to find the perfect spot for a plant in their garden? 🌱 ‘Darlow’s Enigma’ Rose was a tough one for me, but after moving it three times, it’s finally found its happy place. Sometimes, it just takes a little trial and error to get things just right in the garden. #RoseWednesday

Well folks, here it is . . . the new cover for the revised edition of Victory Gardens for Bees! Coming at you in May, 2025. More native plants! More specialist bees! So grateful for the wonderful team of editors, publicists and designers!!!!! douglas-mcintyre.com/.../products... #bees

Thank you!💚We are making fixed point observations from here every day⤵️ bsky.app/profile/naoh...

Smilin’ Bec’s back with a new project. While we chip away at that, here’s a pic of their healed axe from Nov ‘24 @zeitgeisttattoo.bsky.social #tattoo #newTattoo #healedTattoo #tattooSky

All of our posts are gardening 🌱 or bread. Never political. In 2018, we bought a very old house & did a total renovation ourselves before moving in. It took 4yrs 😱 It turned out that the house was 17th Century. Maybe give it a 👍 if you'd like to see some fotos of how we turned that ◀️ into this ▶️

My intrepid little dog wandering in the big trees, which are now gone, as of last week, when a man who, like his father, had been preserving them since 1922, died and whose son immediately sent in the loggers. Rolleiflex MX-EVS Xenar, Tri-X in Diafine #believeinfilm #photo #filmphotography

Ferrying piles of leaves to my mulch heap. Came back to find a present from Ted. 🌱#GardensHour.

Now living in Senior Housing. The garden is a window sill or balcony. Given “price gouging” in many local mega food chain stores, a bunch of us relics of the 60s are actively #ResistanceGardening. Love doing pricey herbs, heirloom veggies. These saffron crocus a success. Suggestions welcome!

Stopping By Woods On A Snowy Evening by Robert Frost in cross stitch. 🧶 The poem is written in iambic tetrameter in the Rubaiyat stanza created by Edward FitzGerald, who adopted the style from Hakim Omar Khayyam, the 12th-century Persian poet and mathematician. #joyisresistance

My wild violets blanket on the side shade garden is pretty awesome. Fantastic native and so easy to encourage. Plus... you get fritillaries along with bumblers!💜🐝🌱 #bugsky #bombus #nature #nativeplants #gardening #violasororia

Have you ever tried seed swapping? 🌱 It's National Seed Swap Day and I'm reminiscing about my favorite container garden that sprouted from seeds traded in a swap. In this wine barrel, I grew Thai Chile, ‘Lao Green Stripe’ Eggplant, and 'Vesuvius' Nasturtium. Lao eggplant dip recipe in comments. 🍽️

Just a short little clip I made from my garden a couple years ago.
