@cathhodsman.bsky.socialWe did it! 💚Between pledges, grants, and sheer grit from fundraisers and folks who contributed over and again in the last two years, the whole Rothbury estate - an area the size of Athens - sets out on a new future for nature and people together. Thanks so much to everyone who shared and donated! 🥳
Show PostMy brother has a huge strawberry tree in his garden, but so far I've failed to grow the seeds and cuttings don't look very easy either. But hopefully I will succeed one day!
Show PostI've counted 30+ species in the garden over the years, not bad for 50m2... yes, those are leiana. There's evidence that some broods stay in diapause for 2 years so maybe they add extra food in case? Cornuta are really papery and fragile compared to bicornis which they resemble.
Show PostOne of Cath's many useful and sustainable tips! Regrow lettuce or other veg on your windowsill. It saves money and is fun to do, also for your children. #gyo #growyourown #windowsillgardening 🌱
