I picked some #flowers from our #gardens to make a new #bouquet for my Dad's memorial altar. We are doing his one year passing ceremonies on Sunday afternoon.
Something about #ferns & raindrops falling on still #waters, that instantly brings calming, #peaceful energies to my soul. #Nature provides many free to access & free to absorb, #HealingPowers 🙏💗
Patch of #nasturtiums attracts many beneficial insects & pollinators.
Fab companion plant for your #EdibleGarden or ornamental garden. Leaves & flowers are #edible.
Grown from mixed, tapped 2022 seeds.
A few garden flowers that just opened
Columbine we planted last year (and in fancy colors, @dillyd ) and a Rocky Mtn Penstemon, also planted last year.
My last public appearance of the season is this Saturday, June 1st!
Join me for a "Pollinator Safari / Walkabout" from 1-3pm at the East 4th Street Community Garden in Kensington, Brooklyn:
"We'll "hunt" for pollinators, and other flower visitors,around the garden. As we try to identify them, we'll learn about the garden’s biodiversity and ecology."
Went to the foodbank and made my pile of just-picked lettuce on one of the tables. I had quite a bit. Volunteer says "Did you grow all this"? 😲
Me: Well - I didn't steal it from the neighbors." 😁
@mappingsupport Looks good! I have yet to harvest enough produce in a day or two to make it worth the long drive to our foodbank (lots of gas... so unless I'm headed that way...)
