Probably good to have an #introduction of sorts. Hello there! I run a small organisation (of one) which designs and writes puzzle and treasure hunts and hides them in books in exchange for joy and dopamine. I also design and make the treasures, occasionally with support from actual craft experts. I also maintain a small #library of armchair treasure hunts, text games, Ergodic literature, other unusual books which is growing all the time. On top of that, I spend a lot of time researching the above and maintaining a permanent #archive of these things to support my creative process. I have a small #garden that I spend a lot of time in, making sure there’s pretty flowers and the occasional food to eat. It is trying to be a wildlife haven. Other important things in my life: good music, damn fine coffee, FOSS / open source, libraries, twin peaks, #retrogames, books books books, exploring the UK wilds and hiking, woodworking, finding out interesting historical things.

Israel is not just committing genocide of people but also cultural and ecological genocide. 90% of Palestinian olive trees have been destroyed in the last few years, farms and livelihoods destroyed. A network of Palestinians and allies seeks to preserve Palestinian heirloom seeds and cultural heritage. See below to support this group, order seeds, raise awareness and offer to be a seed saver. https://www.palestineheirloomseedlibrary.com/ #solarpunksunday #solarpunk #gardening #garden #jardin #garten #Palestine

The hummingbirds are still coming but very infrequently and now really only in the mornings. Seems like most of them have left for warmer climates for the winter. Feeder will stay up for now, just not sure when to take it down. 🤔 #garden

Any UK / European mycologists on here? Found this growing in our Sussex UK garden. Think it might be the very uncommon: CROWN-TIPPED / CANDELABRA fungus Artomyces pyxidatus Although I accept it could just be Upright Coral (Ramaria Stricta), but I'm not convinced on it. Have tried specialist app ID as well as general AI. No book here to consult. Any ideas? #mycology #fungus #fungi #shrooms #mushrooms #nature #wildlife #garden #alttext

#solarpunksunday #gardening #garden #jardin #garten #ClimateChangeGardening 1/2🧵 Leaf harvest: sweet potato leaves, papalo and muscadines. This is the last harvest for muscadines before they start to turn yellow. This is the first round for SP and the papalo got pulled bc the plants broke off from the base in the Nor’easter. My oven will only accommodate a few trays at a time so I can only collect enough in a day that will fit. It takes around 12h to dry SP leaves at 140F.

I think 53 pumpkins should get us comfortably through the winter for pumpkin pie. Even more left on the vines but I'm not sure they will fully ripen as the vines are beginning to die. All this from just 3 plants. Maybe next year I'll settle on just one. #garden #harvest
