It’s been a busy week! I’ve spent a lot of time in propagation, getting ready some new nursery offerings for the fall, did a horticultural analysis of a a property, worked the 326 Community Market, sent off a bunch of water chestnuts to new homes, plus I’ve been writing my fingers off (which is normal).
Let’s do a roundup of good stuff you can check out over the weekend.
You’ve probably noticed the new twitter feed in the sidebar. You can sign up to follow me here. When I come across something interesting, I post it. A lot of gardening info, plus some economics and other esoterica.
