Precious Pollinators

Where would we bee without our pollinators? Our dinner plates would be a lot less full and there would  be a lot less flowers, to put it lightly. Every day, these miniature and mighty warriors buzz, flutter, and jump from flower to pollen-filled flower performing the essential act of pollination. Did you know that 85%...

It’s been a great week to be a plant! With this week’s rain, the greens have been growing and glowing… and so have the weeds. Shelf fungi the size of hubcaps have been exploding out of decomposing trees. The Delaware and Lehigh rivers were breaking the banks, encroaching upon the pedestrian paths and flooding the boat ramps. All...
