Hackers attack supermarket fridges in Belgium, Sweden and Luxembourg.

Refrigerators in dozens of supermarkets across Belgium, Sweden and Luxembourg were out of service on Monday in what appears to be a repeat of cyberattacks that hit French supermarkets last month.

Detecting crop failures earlier: the AI model CropFusionNet forecasts yields of silage maize, winter wheat and winter barley in Germany more accurately than existing systems, even in drought years. Forecasts are possible 40 to 70 days before harvest, and the model shows which environmental factors drive yield losses. The code is open on #GitHub.

Posted May 19, 2026

"Did you know that we have a #SeedLibrary? Our wonderful office manager/volunteer coordinator/plant whisperer Katie put it together! Here are a few of her tips about donating seeds:

1. Donate seeds at the seed library (ask at a desk if you can't find it). There is a little dish (pictured) with forms about your seeds. It's okay if you don't know everything, but we would prefer more than just "beans." Are they pole beans? Bush beans? Magic beans?*

2. Please do not put seeds into the seed library yourself. Please leave them in an envelope in the dish, with the description. Volunteers divvy the seeds up so each envelope contains only a few seeds so more people have the chance to sample a seed variety.

*I feel like people should know if they're planting magic beans. Not only would HOAs probably object to giant beanstalks, but we'd probably need some kind of waiver just in case giants start falling out of the sky.

Questions? Email Katie! [email protected]

And keep an eye out for the return of our gleaning table in mid-June! "

"PML's Seed Library is back!

We've stocked our little free Seed Library. All seeds were grown and harvested locally by people in our community. Seeds include a wide variety of flower, herb, flower-herbs, and vegetables. Some will require starting early. Some are direct sow. There are many unique and interesting varieties.

Check it out next time your at the library. Please limit your haul to 5 seed packets, so that we can spread the seed love to many people.

If you have any leftover seed packets at home or partially used packets, bring them in and add them to the 'take-some, leave-some' bucket."
