This is the first week since January where there isn’t some appointment or event every day. I am tired and know I should rest, but the additional time makes me want to keep going to get ahead of projects here.

Our local library held an event for new gardeners and after helping out with that I was asked if I’d be interested in doing workshops or small group lessons there. So there are now rough plans for “sips of science” style presentations on things like plant propagation, biochar, and home composting setups at the library. It’s only a little scary because the last people who’ve hosted the science chats have advanced degrees and I’m just some nerdy permie from the internet.
