the winter rye in my back yard has joined the plants on campus in flowering and continues the trend started by the dixie clover (second photo ) and taken up by the increasing number of blooms on the hitchhiking hairy vetch...as these blooms die back they will be replaced by flowering potato plants and the ever relentless jerusalem artichokes...( scroll down to the next post see the latest on them )...blooms all summer and into the fall after the geraniums recover and fight off the japanese beetles...colorful and produce to eat...win/win.
Organic rather than transgenetic. Labor instead of chemicals. Diversity in place of monoculture.

About Me
- fred
- an ex- industrial worker ( the continued automation of jobs, condensing of ownership, plant closings, trade wars, and degradation of living standards here has rendered me a former industrial worker...now just part-time lumpen proletariat) and university student (everyone needs a hobby...my hobbies have evolved and, to keep things straight, i have left my formal student career behind for reasons that are too detailed to delve into here...continuing to be a student of life however and not adverse to learning...stasis is death ) sliding down the back side of middle age...a social loner with collectivist leanings...explain that.
