Please don't feel like you should follow me just because I followed you! You're probably way cooler than I am.
Sometimes I get chatty (procrastinating). Mute me for a while and I swear I will get the hint and go away. Or just tell me to go back to work.
Please don't hesitate to DM me if I did something boneheaded or you just need to chat. <3

every “ancient tradition” was invented between 1848-1870 and every “modern perversion” is so ancient as to predate writing

I'm working on lots of cool projects at the moment with some super talented people. #ForestGarden #FoodForest #wildlife tower with a local artist.

This is a sketch of a Tŵr Gwyllt (Wildlife Tower) that the artist is currently working on, and I'd like to adapt the design for edible perennials and #NativePlants, as well as habitat
