Not a Wasteland

March 6, 2021

The weather has been beautiful.

Perfect for getting outside into the blackberry brambles.

Spoiler: The best thing about my latest clearing session? I found a wriggly, beautiful worm. It looked so happy, and now that the canes are gone, there’s room to sow a few native wildflower seeds. It would be just a small patch, but a start all the same toward my dream of covering the hillside with native plants. Makes me think of one of my favorite Bible verses which reminds me not to “despise the day of small beginnings” (Zechariah 4:10).  Worms always give me hope, especially finding one where I thought there was only a wasteland.
