pickI enjoyed this take on local eating that shows how, even in a small apartment in a northern climate, one can eat locally. I loved the personal insights and farmer portraits. And it made me hungry, which is the best thing I can say about a food book. 😂 Picture is part of our haul from this week‘s farmers market. It‘s winter squash season!
pickI cannot say enough good about this book. So charming, so fun, so narrative, so warm, inviting and yet it challenges you as well. I look forward to coming back to this one!
pickA great introduction into a rapidly expanding field of research and application. Who knew that plants NEEDED bacteria, fungi, nematodes, and protozoa to thrive? Time to set aside all the dangerous chemicals and team up with the soil food web. Nobody ever fertilized an old growth forest.s
Recommended by so many gardeners. Let's read it.
First ripe tomato of the season 🍅♥️

I feel like surfing is the ultimate #SummerSport Here are a few 🏄🏽🏄🏼♀️🏄🏽♂️ books I‘ve read & haven‘t posted about lately. To be fair the tagged book is a business book & is more about the surfing title than actual surfing! 🤷🏻♀️
pickFantastic listen. Should be required reading.
Ritchie is an Enviro Scientist and Data Analyst with a passion for writing. She combines her skills to deliver a clear eyed state of the climate that cuts through sensationalist headlines and sits in the facts with a fresh, hopeful perspective. She never sugar coats things, where the situation is bad she tells you just how bad it is, but she also shows how we can, and often are, making things better.
For the first time in a while, I feel fully engaged in and excited about everything I'm reading!
Audio - Not the End of the World by Hannah Ritchie. I feel like this should be required reading. I'm going to need to buy a copy to revisit!
Physical - All the Birds, Singing by Evie Wyld. I don't think there's an author out there who writes such wonderfully messy women. I'm loving it.

I missed that we were doing #FridayNightShare again! For yesterday‘s #SpringNonFiction prompt, I‘m choosing the book. I think of spring as a time to clean & freshen up. I have had this book on my shelves for ages & still use many of her green cleaning tips & recipes including her Lavender-Lemon Disinfecting Spirits Spray & her essential oil combo list. 💚🌱🪻🍋💛
