A Burlington homeowner is fighting charges over her “naturalized garden” of native plants in her front and back yards. The city is taking Karen Barnes to Provincial Offences Court, seeking up to $400,000 in fines for violating a bylaw order to cut it down.
wow, looks like a little slice of paradise. it’s so green.
strange, i came down with covid for the first time this year, and i spent 2020 and most of 2021 getting bounced between shelters and a halfway house. shit sucked. glad for vaccines. i think it must be complacency, everyone stopped even pretending to wear masks, and don’t get me started with handwashing, which was already an unacnowledged public health crisis before covid imho.
I read something about loofah sponges a few days or a week ago or so… aren’t they related to bottle gourds? have you actually used them for like, scrubbing? probably a silly question but i don’t suppose birds could actually nesti in the gourds?
