I'm currently planting and building a #foodforest garden in the 🇨🇦 #pnw. I like to cook and eat locally grown and foraged food.

I work for a local conservation and food security non-profit.

I am interested in the places where food, #history, culture, and #gardening intersect.

Anti-capitalist temporarily stuck within the confines of capitalism.

Eat like a peasant.

People can be stressed, anguished, in fear for their lives and directly witnessing violence, and they will still rapidly and immediately form groups with the people they are with and try to get everyone out. Counter to the idea that our "civilization" falls away, revealing our "secret real nature." We are social, we don't just "put on" social.

Obviously our capacity to form groups is exploitable, but that does not mean it isn't extraordinary and a source of tremendous compassion and action.

the first frost the other morning was very pretty in the yard. I like fall a lot, but I really struggle with winter approaching! the only thing I've got is that winter is a necessary valley in the cycle, but that ain't much by itself.

This solitary menhir is one of hundreds in Portugal's Algarve. These are some of the oldest standing stones in Europe, dating back over seven thousand years.

The Menir do Padrão is one of a group, possibly a cromeleque. The others are scattered and broken - this one is the only standing member.

new portrait just dropped

Why is taxing private jets considered to be "ideological" when we know private jets emit multiples more carbon dioxide per passenger than commercial flights and that their use is growing at an alarming rate.

The policy is based on hard evidence and should be in every party's policy if they are serious about tackling climate change.

Private jet carbon emissions soar 46%: Study

The carbon footprint from private jet travel grew 46 percent between 2019 and 2023 and will keep rising unless the ultra-luxury industry is regulated, according to new research published Thursday.
