It's been awhile since my last avocado-related post, but for anyone in the project area (hardiness zone 8b+ Cascadia), I've got a bunch of seedlings that are overdue for distribution and planting. Slide into the DMs if you wanna join the project!

This is the tree that has been outside in the ground for the longest of any tree in the project: since January 2021.
If the winter is mild enough to avoid damage to the branch tips, it's possible this could flower for the first time next year.

These articles always depend on a bizarre Schroedinger's Seattle: The city is falling apart due to progressive overreach but we should have re-elected the conservative non-socialist who has been in charge for the last four years.

I've started about 500 avocado seeds for this project, but this little seedling is pretty special. This was grown from the seed of the first (and so far only) avocado that has ripened on any tree in the project.

He said that the agents would throw food at them to eat. The agents threatened to withhold food for a week and to beat him up if he didn't sign deportation papers. He said he saw others refuse and get beaten/receive no food. He signed because he was afraid.
