  1. Spent some time at the #CommunityGarden today. Planted some #BlackBeans and #Potatoes, and pulled up some weeds (the flowers should be popping up after all that rain). Had a cool conversation with my neighbor who is a selectboard member and who helped get the garden going again, and told him what a great job he is doing. I mean, #composters, #rainbarrels, making the #CommunityCenter an #EmergencyShelter, supporting #DatacenterMoratoriums and #SmartGrowth. What more could one ask for in a town rep!

  6. So, pro-tip from the local farmstand (where I buy produce and some seedlings from) -- when growing #Tomatoes, plant #Basil and #Marigolds with them -- even if growing container tomatoes (which is what I do). I love my local growers! They rock! 💚 🌿 🍅 🌻

    10 Edible Plants That Attract #Pollinators

    By Robin Shreeves
    Updated May 01, 2021

    "While many plants are edible and even downright delicious, only some are also able to attract pollinators. Pollinators are bugs and animals that carry pollen from one plant to another, helping them to make fruit, seeds, and plant offspring. Pollinator species are essential for the natural pollination crucial to earth's ecosystems, and adding plants to your garden that attract pollinators, like bees, birds, and butterflies, can help your plants flourish without using fertilizers or other undesirable substances.

    Here are 10 plants that will both attract pollinators and provide nutritious food for you and your loved ones.

    1. Squash
    2. Basil
    3. Green Beans
    4. Lavender
    5. Oregano
    6. Apple Tree
    7. Radish
    8. Dandelion
    9. Sunflower
    10. Honeysuckle [I would avoid consuming honeysuckle berries unless one is certain of the variety, since some varieties are toxic] "
