First it's anti vegans and now it's no raised beds, somewhere there's a hidden agenda to attack the fringe of society and make mainstream more acceptable. Where do internet influencers get their ideas ? The problem with social media is that a small fire spreads quickly and before you have time to check the reality, the myths become true . Can't people find real jobs, I'm part of a group of real technophobes who find it impossible to get the message across without being hypocritical. The next big issue is the world becoming paperless, we should start making flyers while we still can !

Still observing signs of life (and death) In order of appearance It looks like the remains of daisy fleabane, so beautiful even on its last leg. Swamp dewberry (Rubus hispidus) a new discovery for me, and finally that beautiful and EVIL common ragweed! Now that I know what ragweed looks like as a baby I'm going to get 'em!
