Go, Frenchie!

9•10•2024 || wild turkeys…keep dragging me away

8•19/20•24 || lots of new flowers in my garden. So much more orange than I expected, too. I have some things to pull out from the flower box and then maybe add some I’ve been growing inside. Lots of alyssum.

7•25•24 || some random plants and tomatoes I have growing in my garden

7•25•24 || future sight of a beautiful dream garden I’ve always wanted. So much work to be done.

7•25•24 || purple and pink

7•3•24 || We picked some of our lettuce growing and planted some seeds I saved from a tomato and a bell pepper. Pmdd really kicking my ass today. Everything is getting to me. Highly recommend the song I Choose Violence by Jax if you have trauma from older men creeping on you when you were barely 18. Had a Monster to get through the rest of the day.

6•25•24 || the moon stuck around during the early morning. That sunrise was gorgeous too.

5•31•24 || got new veggies planted bc the ones we were growing from seeds died already. Think it’s the dirt we use. We’ll be able to cover them now too since we have a tarp. Now they won’t get dried out or too much sun.

I have a few ravens that visit and I finally have a picture of one. No trinkets yet, but they love our birdseed.

We only have one flower growing in the flower bed on the side of the house, but lots of bulbs are popping up. This one is called a broadleaf wild leek. It doesn’t really have a smell unfortunately but purple is my favorite color so I’m happy she exists.

5•15•24 || I’ve really missed foraging/plant identifying (picked and photographed on the 11th)

5•11•24 || got a lot done, but most importantly, the trees that were killing the main one in the middle have been cleaned out so hopefully the roots can start healing. It’s kind of swampy here, though, so maybe not. We have to get the roots out still of not just the old trees but these prickly plants that our dogs keep trying to stick their noses into. We want to put wildflowers in the area but will need to use soil we’ve put aside bc this ground isn’t good for growing anything. We’ve already had a little family of yellow finches eating from the bird feeders! Now we can see them much better.

5•3•24 || my plants are growing
