🌱 I had some scientist on here seriously ask me to prove Glyphosate wasn’t lethal. Millions in lawsuits they’re paying out are enough proof for me. Monsanto funded so many fake scientific papers criticising research that posed a threat to its profits, scientists are falling for it. 🙈
A review article concluding the weed killer Roundup--aka glyphosate--“does not pose a health risk to humans” has been retracted 8 years after documents released in a court case revealed employees of Monsanto, the company that developed it, wrote the article but were not named as coauthors.

Saved a tiny swarm today that probably abandoned their wild hive infested and diseased (70% died last year). No way they’d make it without a beekeeper’s help - too cold, too little blooming. Met a gardener who grows bergamot, dries and candies the delicious peels, grows rare scented orchids… 🌱

It’s me (and every other gardener out there). 🌱 We use them for bouquets, seed saving… you name it. And @jstpwalsh.bsky.social sent me this so you know we’re living it haha.

Dementia experts don’t predict the monster (Dictator Trump), to live passed Spring. I have never been more excited for any season.

“Oudolf directs that when the growing season is over, dead perennials should be left in place so that their silhouettes—skeletal stalks, bulging seedpods, withered leaves, and dangling panicles—form compositions that he deems just as beautiful as the garden at its summer peak.” 🌱
“Oudolf’s foremost contribution to contemporary horticulture has been his insistence that gardens, even in temperate climates with pronounced seasonal changes, are meant to be enjoyed throughout the year, which requires a new attitude toward plantings in all stages of growth and decay”

Seeds to donate to Los Angeles fire victims? 🌱 We are distributing thru Seed Libraries and fire-affected schools in Altadena, as well as Pacific Palisades. Native/noninvasive seeds going to the Seed Bomb Project, who has already donated 4,000 ❣️seed bombs since June. Ship-To Address to in comments.

Seed saving for Los Angeles fire victims on giant cookie trays right now. Here are breadseed poppies. If you have ANY seed you’d like to contribute, 📌and return next week - I’ll post the shipping address (not mine), distributing to both Altadena and Palisades. Coming up on the 1-year anniversary. 🌱

@jstpwalsh.bsky.social went to White Sands New Mexico & I got this plant-dyed cap embroidered with Protogygia Whitesandsensis - only discovered 2009 & exists no other place on earth. Most Protogygia live in habitats with sandy soils. ALL moths are critical pollinators, very few eat your sweaters. 🌱

Quick pop in to feed the bees!
I’m making the door smaller/easier to defend because honey bees will steal from one another if starving… and ALL pollinators in S. California starve August to January, because too little is blooming + climate warming = insects no longer getting a winter rest. 🌱

It’s time we get smarter about climate warming futures in cities surrounded by wild, dry vegetation, and I have some ideas. 🌱
During the Palisades fire, hydrants lost pressure and ran dry. A nearby reservoir was empty for repairs. After a review, state officials found that even if the reservoir had been full, the water system still would have been quickly overwhelmed and lost pressure. www.latimes.com/environment/...

Finally, Dems do does something right. THANK you. @vetsaboutface.bsky.social is a resource to the enlisted for those that honor their constitution and won’t support the GOP Dictatorship’s ask for lawless inhumane terror on citizens.
When you have a lawless criminal and 5-time draft-dodging coward as commander-in-chief, it’s fair to remind our military not to obey UNLAWFUL orders.

💦 Bees can’t fly if wet or too cold.
Without forager bees bringing in food (nectar AND pollen), there won’t be any to feed the eggs. So if the hive doesn’t have enough food stored, eggs will be eaten as a substitute as a source of protein young bees need for… (see comments) 🌱

This outburst is GREAT - what EVERYONE missed? It is typical for severe dementia. He is fraying. That they still let him speak is bonkers.

Los Angeles is getting two more days of rain and the skies are filled with beautiful puffy white cumulus nimbus… it’s going to be a spectacular sunset. Don’t forget to get outside for awe and wonder, reset. The real pink moment drama comes after the sun is completely down (most leave too early). 🌅 🌱
