I can't recommend this book highly enough for anybody interested in understanding #climatechange and what we need to do moving forward.

Incredible work by @hannahritchie.bsky.social that paints a clear picture of how to move forward, and what misinformation to ignore.

10/10

Something to be aware of here in Canada — our new PM is in lockstep with the Trumpian authoritarian playbook. This is not okay.

Rent is high. Groceries are impossible. But instead of taxing billionaires, the govt is pushing Bill C-12 to deport workers.

Syed Hussan explains how migrant blaming is a strategy to distract us.

Stop Bill C-12. Stop the scapegoating:

Last month, my father died.

Growing up with him we played video games and chess, listened to music, and watched countless movies and TV shows. He had a knack for finding diamonds in the rough when it came to media, and I'm grateful for (that part of) his influence on my life.

R.I.P. Papa Bear ❤️

At the bottom, a chess board sits next to a tombstone with the engraving " R.I.P. Papa Bear ❤️ "

#Arboreality by Rebecca Campbell of whereishere.ca has softly changed my life.

I've spent >10 years learning about climate change, regenerative land management, and what awaits civilization as we know it, and this book helped me feel seen.

Wildly depressing, but I can't recommend it enough. ❤️

Wandering through the West Coast woods, and finding inspiration everywhere. ❤️
Photo taken from ground level of a West Coast forest in the spring. Trees draped in moss, fallen branches and woody debris on the ground, and hundreds of new maple sprouts poking up through the mulch layer take up most of the view. In the distance, new Big Leaf Maple leaves are visible in the sunlight.

Happy belated Earth Day, everyone.

This is Loudon Park in #Nanaimo BC, and we're encouraging the @cityofnanaimo.bsky.social reconsider their plan to cut down these beautiful ~80 year old fir trees.

Thanks so much to everyone who came out for the invasive species cleanup this past Saturday!

We got two massive piles of Ivy, Daphne, and an entire Holly tree off the land, making more room for the native understory to establish and thrive. ✨
A roughly 2m high pile of English Ivy, English Holly, and Daphne pulled at the entrance to the dog loop at Colliery dam. A second pile, also roughly 2m tall, of pruned Holly branches and logs heaped and ready for pickup.

Design Showcase

This was a #landscape-design from 2024, and the one that earned us our #permaculture certification.

The clients had an exposed site, mostly turf, and wanted a more naturalist, cottage garden aesthetic. We recommended a small #orchard bolstered by #native #berries and #wildflowers.
The finished design for a property near Nanaimo, BC. The main house has orchard trees along the southern edge, followed by a field of native wildflowers, raised garden beds, and mixed native shrubs, most of which producing berries. To the east and northeast of the house, desirable views are maintained and cold winter winds partially blocked with a series of native evergreen shrubs. Mort berry bushes to the north of the house, along with a new 3-bin composting system, and food and visual screening plants installed all along the border facing the road, bringing seasonal forage and year-round privacy where it's needed. Between all these features, a new set of paths has been created with two sets of stone stairs, guiding the clients and their guests around the land. The "before" illustration of the design site. A main house is surrounded mostly by turf grass, with trees along the road and near the southern tip of the site. A septic field sits in the middle of the largest patch of turf, and a tiny home is nestled in the southern corner. A copy of the previous "before" illustration, this time highlighting areas to the east and northeast where desirable views have been marked as golden rays coming from the house. Along the road, the entire border has been marked with a rosy band, indicating where additional visual privacy screening is desires.

The client needed a border bed revamp after discovering how existing plants were #toxic for their #dogs.

We filled the space with #Saskatoon, Oval-leaf #Blueberry, Evergreen #Huckleberry, Coastal #Strawberry, #Kinnikinnick, Blackcap #Raspberry, #ferns, and #native #wildflowers. ♥
After image of a series of border garden beds planted with a range of West Coast native species, including Saskatoon, Red-flowering Currant, Oval-leaf Blueberry, Evergreen Huckleberry, Blackcap Raspberry, Coastal Strawberry, Kinnikinnick, and native wildflowers such as Camas, Canada Goldenrod, and Common Yarrow. Before image of the same garden beds, with only a few sparse exotic trees and decorative rocks along the edges. Two pale beams from the house identify ocean views, intended to be maintained with the subsequent design. A close-up of one corner of the garden beds, showing a myriad of native berry shrubs, wildflowers, and ferns. A second close-up image showing more of the diversity of plantings established on site, including a large Saskatoon shrub at the entrance of the yard, ground-covers of strawberries, kinnikinnick, and native wildflowers, and multiple other species of native berry-producing shrubs.
