I have been fostering a connection to my land.

I’m feeling a connection to my land.

I am stewarding my land to the best of my ability.

I am learning to work with nature.

I might also try Trello. Excel honestly might be better because at least then it's local and no one can take my work away from me. But no sharing with anyone.

Scrivener could work, too. 🤔 hmm yes Scrivener. Much better for media handling and very easy to freely organize. That could work.

These listicles seem desperate. That one ran out of ideas after 4 and started listing idle games where you grow plants.

*huge heavy sigh*

Another one was like, Here's Instagram's gardening group! Here's Facebook's gardening group! Here's a subreddit! How about Twitter!

Really missing the 00s where there was a social media site well-designed for any hobby you wanted. I mean, I could create areas of my yard, list the plants I put there, upload pics.

A listicle is recommending iNaturalist, which I already have, but I'm not sure how good it is for tracking what you've planted and where? 🤔 And tracking over time how well it does and if it dies?

I dug in my gmail to find the website I used to use to track my naturescaping project in my Seattle house. It was MyFolia. But sadly, the site and my record of the plants I planted is gone now. Too bad, I'd like to remember some of them.

Does anyone know of a good site for tracking your yard/garden? Or software/app? I'd prefer something I can use on the computer.

For instance, I planted two kinds of everbearing strawberries this spring, and one is doing well (though not producing) and the other is trying to die. I tried to keep the plastic labels so I can remember which is which, but one is already missing. If I had entered them on a website, I'd be able to take notes so I know what kinds of plants to get next time.

There's an overwhelming number of species in this yard and it seems every two I ID, I forget one.

I realize there's always Excel, but. Something made for this purpose would be better.

My mom started this and I’m taking over with my own ideas, as I can with my fatigue. She got rid of the lawn, but her way obsesses a bit with being tidy about it which requires more upkeep we haven’t been able to keep up with. This is only a small portion of the yard, so I’m trying a more cultivate and let it do is thing approach.

Thanks, I was itching for an excuse to take picture #1. The others are from various times this spring.

A wonderful piece in The Berkshire Eagle about #NancyLawson, author of “The Humane Gardener” (which we own and 💚) and her new book, “Wildscape.” A knowledgeable, inspiring, and beautiful writer & a kind, creative, and wise gardener, Nancy has much to teach us…https://www.berkshireeagle.com/arts_and_culture/home-garden/thomas-christopher-be-a-better-gardener-nancy-lawson-wildscape/article_73e00ccc-5efc-11ee-bb6a-bf545423adca.html
A simple change in landscaping can enhance our coexistence with wildlife

Edging a body of water — a lake or pond — with a band of native grasses and flowers not only increases the biodiversity of the landscape by attracting native
