  1. A #WoodMeadow is one of the most #biodiverse #ecosystems *in the world*, with up to 70 species of vascular #plants per square metre. Critically, “Biodiversity of the meadow ecosystems is connected to human use and it declines significantly if this use ceases” (Kull, Kukk & Lotman 2003)

    Help me get #sustainable #WoodMeadows established in #Cymru #Wales, support my fundraiser to visit the 14th European Conference on #Ecological #Restoration

    Thank you 🙏 🌳

  12. @natureworks
    It's spectacular! I spotted the first in the hedgerows around here this week too. Won't be long before it is joined by #bluebells #whitebells #cowparsley
    A feast for the eyes.

  13. Design is a process, #CAD is a tool, *working with #nature* is the principle!

    This means #NativePlants where possible, #FoodForest #ForestGarden for edible crops, #organic, #PeatFree compost etc.

    I’ve created a #CAD for #GardenDesign online class for #wildlife & #FoodForest garden designers like myself, starting at the beginning & accelerating rapidly!

  20. @NatureMC Thank you so much, this is fascinating! & the 3 videos so informative. The #cowhorn ring template is a nifty tool.
    I started wondering about honey extraction, & was delighted to read of a #beekeeper achieving good yields this way in UK, with healthy #bees & delicious #mead:
    bee-craft.com/beecraft-extra/a
    & also teaching #skep making skills:

    Thanks for ideas & inspiration!

  26. I do things other than #gardening. Currently working on a few fair-size projects inc #WoodMeadow & #HopeGarden, so I'm trying to get organised. Can totally recommend #Obsidian note taking app. I use it for managing tasks with Tasks & Obligator plugin, vaguely following "Capture, to do, next action" organisation outlined by Geet Duggal. Also use for writing #Hugo website & #Buttondown newsletter. Everything in #Markdown & #PlainText

  27. “You’re hurting me. I can’t breathe. Stop.” And they said to me what they’ve said to so many victims of police brutality: “You’re talking. You can breathe.”

  28. Also:

    * #Organic
    * #PeatFree
    * #Vegan
    * Local & recycled materials
    * Minimal energy
    * Minimal plastic

  29. @rood absolutely. Anything that can be commodified & industrialised has been and will be, including gardens.

    I believe there's a place for experts & nurseries, but how do you reconcile with that mass production & consumption, where the industrial juggernaut weighs against change, with #PeatFree compost for example?

  30. @aral probably not kingdom material but have you used #Guake? I love it, probably because I don't use a terminal much any more but it's handy. It _looks_ like there's Wayland support, has split screens, some GTK native support. Plus it has the coolest name for a terminal ever.
