Last class with my 10th grade Environmental Scienc Last class with my 10th grade Environmental Science class was today and has me reminiscing about our Semester 2 field trip we went on a few weeks ago. 

This batch of kids drive me crazy, but they make me laugh and bring me joy. I’m not sure I have ever laughed so much with a class. I’m going to miss them so! 

Thanks for having us @whitneylaboratory it was a great day of hands on learning!

🌸If you want to plant Zinnia seeds, now is the 🌸If you want to plant Zinnia seeds, now is the perfect time for Zone 8 and 9! 

🌸A couple of weeks ago I planted the seeds that I harvested last fall. 

🌸I sprinkled them directly on the ground and added a little soil on top, then watered. 

🌸Don’t let the seeds dry out while they are germinating, and in a week or so you will have little seedlings pop up. 

🌸I make a zig zag pattern when I seed, to make the garden area dense with flowers. 

🌸In about 4 weeks I’ll go back and add more seeds, to fill in any spots, and stagger my bloom times. 

🌸In about 8 weeks, you will have lots of beautiful flowers, tons of pollinators, and they will bloom all summer!

March Substack newsletter is out! I wrote about March Substack newsletter is out! 

I wrote about a family of bald eagles that died earlier this winter, presumably from Bird Flu, the tension and oscillation of the start of spring, dancing in your bedroom, and a sourdough king cake recipe-yes, I meant to get that recipe out before Fat Tuesday, but here we are. Enjoy! 

Huge thank you to one of my dearest friends, who I can always depend on for the best big brother vibes and support, for his gorgeous photo of a Bald Eagle. @d_mad_115 @maddenscience
