  1. Morning success!

    • Errand run in Baby Blue (top down, of course!)
    • Yard work complete
    • Iced my injured right shoulder directly after (I'm right-handed)

    After cooling off inside, treated myself to one finger of Laphroiag Scotch (I'm retired, and now do exactly as I please 🥃).

    Happy our Blueberry Festival is enjoying nice weather: none of the predicted rain yet on their first day! 🫐 🌞 🙂

  16. I think we may have eaten most of the ripe blueberries on this bush out of hand. But there are more to come! Yay blueberries. And we have a neighborhood gathering tonight, so little kids will be stripping the front yard bushes clean.

  21. Vulnerable workers bearing the cost of providing Australia with cheap food

    "Across Australia's fruit and vegetable industry, Fair Work Ombudsman investigations have repeatedly uncovered widespread non-compliance...: systemic worker exploitation, forced labour, debt bondage and, in some cases, human trafficking and servitude."

    "In Coffs Harbour, 61 per cent of growers and labour hire companies inspected were found to be breaching workplace laws, including underpaying workers. The figure rose to 72 per cent in the Riverina and 83 per cent in Victoria's Mornington Peninsula and Yarra Valley....Oz Group, a co-operative representing more than 140 berry growers across NSW's Mid North Coast, said in its 2020 statement it "does not accept any form of slavery-like practices within the co-operative or throughout its supply chain".However, in its 2025 statement, the co-operative said, "addressing modern slavery requires ongoing effort and collaboration" and it remained "committed to continuous improvement"." >>
