Olga Tokarczuk - Drive Your Plow Over The Bones Of The Dead

Just finished this quirky book. I liked it. Well crafted characters and a pace that allows you to just hang out with them. And there’s a mystery and some thoughtful ruminations on life.

Meet the #Malaysian #Conservationist Devoting Her Life to Protecting #Fireflies. For Wan Faridah Akmal Jusoh, the night skies hold a sense of natural wonder and offer opportunities for citizen #science. My no #lawn #garden is full of #fireflies that arrived early, in June - they are delightful and pleased with the ecosystem I have created - lots of plants, bushes, trees, and a pond. Green rules. https://therevelator.org/protecting-fireflies/

I've volunteered at past work parties at #WellandCommunityOrchard in the past.

This Sunday, I'm taking Mom there for a Summer trees pruning workshop. It's free for seniors & disabled folks to attend 🙂

Gather, harvest, and learn at one of the largest and most diverse #CommunityOrchards in #Canada. Once the backyard of local #conservationist Rex Welland, the #orchard is home to nearly 200 #FruitTrees and vines, including many rare varieties of apple, pear, plum, fig, grape, hazelnut, kiwi, paw paw, and more.
It was Rex’s vision to have his land loved, used, and #stewarded by the public, and since 2013 we’ve been working with the Town of #ViewRoyal to turn the orchard into a #CommunityResource.

The #Biden admin is expected to deny permission for a mining company to build a 211-mile #industrial #road through fragile #AlaskanWilderness, handing a victory to #environmentalists in an election yr when #POTUS wants to underscore his credentials as a #climate leader & #conservationist.

A #conservationist friend from #CostaRica told me that the #impact of #pineapple is supposed to be worse than #palmoil, cause pristine jungle is cut down & they have to grow completely without weeds > XXL use of pesticides. Pineapples from Costa Rica go mainly to Germany🍍🇨🇷 ➡️🇩🇪

#February 13, 1879
#OTD Lester Rowntree, American #Botanist & #Writer, is born.

A fierce #Conservationist, Lester believed living w/ plants led to understanding. She was often compared to the incredible #PlantExplorer David Douglas, but unlike Douglas, who died young, Lester lived to be 100.

She wrote,

"I [approach] plants from the # Gardener's, not the scientist's, standpoint...

I [write] from my own notes, taken on the spot, of the things the #Plants have told me in personal interviews."
