Most of the year this account only speaks about compost. Our goal is to inspire a few people to be the change and understand how they can help the world by developing composting systems at home or for their community.

But you also have to understand that your host is a #lgbtqia person who has to hear a lot of horrors year-round about #trans people. Being #transgender means that a lot of the people on earth don't want you to exist at all.

This is why we celebrate #pridemonth to remind you that there are more important issues on this planet right now.

By a domino effect, a few people can inspire a lot of others to develop the right habits so that we don't mess up this planet.

Our local #seeds and #plants free #library is the best thing our local community has done for #gardeners.

We can give the extra plants that love to volunteer in the #gardens and exchange a few #herbs, #trees, plants, or garden tools that people want to share.

Here is the link to the FB group if you want to find some inspiration and start some for your community. It is my last reason to still use FB.

I sure wish #mastodon had groups like this one.

compost, 6 days ago (edited 2 days ago) to climate

What is fantastic about composting worms is that not only they are able to process an insane amount of waste and help us limit greenhouse gasses from landfills, but we often forget that they produce one of the most powerful manure that can be made at home.

If you apply the worm castings in your garden, you will boost the biology in your soils and provide a lot of nutrients for your plants.

If you want to do something for the #climate a worm bin is a very good start.

YOU ARE THE CHANGE

Fascism is like poison ivy it is toxic and invasive and once it is out of control you regret you did not act sooner.

Big 👍 for the European countries that sent the fascists home today.

Several members of our community have shared their concerns about fighting Poison Ivy or Oak.

Please share your tips and tricks and your experience on how you deal with this issue.

We have an area that we are trying to rescue here and we know the struggle.

It is the one thing that should not go to the #compost pile.

Please go #vote for the #eu.

The enshitification of this election by the fascists in disguise is an attempt to take over democracy and destroy this institution.

It is a disgrace to vote for those who do not care by definition and they will fix nothing for you.

If you care about your freedom you have no other option but vote. And if you believe those people are not like those nazis of WWII you are being fooled.

I can so relate to this documentary about #Yoga

It has changed my life and healed me. It has improved my work in the gardens to the point that I am not concerned anymore about the pain I might get because yoga will fix it for me.

#mastodon you are fabulous and I can't stress enough the #lgbtqia community to have a look at this awesome tool.

This video is a No-Dig Gardening Masterclass with Charles Dowding

Ever since we have tried no-dig even on a very heavy clay native soil, we just can't go back to normal.

You indeed need a lot of compost for a no-dig garden and this is why we wanted to master all of this.

compost, 3 days ago to trans

Being #trans has never meant that you become a woman. It means that you have to accept the reality that you are a woman born into a different body.

We do not choose any of this. It is a painful experience to realize and when you realize that a lot of the society will shun you for who you are it is not something we wish on others.

This is why we celebrate #Pridemonth because society does not see us as equals.

But the good news is because I have accepted who I am I can surround myself with people that care.

French gardener Olivier explains in this video the results after 6 months in his gardens of different composts and mulches.

The video is in French of course but the content is worth it. French is my native language so if you have questions you can ask them.

The enshitification of politics is a strategy used by the fascists in disguise to discourage people from voting.

Why does it serve them? So that they can be elected of course and appear as the white savior.

Do not be fooled by this, it is better to have incompetent democrats than an incompetent fascist in charge.

Go #vote dear European friends.

When I make bedding for our composting worms, I grab all the paper I can find and shred it into very little pieces.

When the worm bin is too dry I soak this in water and it fixes the humidity.
When the worm bin is too wet I just add the dry paper.

The really big pro of doing this is that you limit the risks of adding intruders to the bin that might be in the brown material. I have yet to find any cons for this method.

When the conservatives want to send to the white house a candidate that had an affair with a porn star that wanted to go public.

This is one of the reasons we celebrate #PrideMonth, when those who like to fix moralistic rules can't apply those rules to themselves.

Clean your mess before talking shit about others. I don't need to be lectured by those who can't get their shit together.

Vote them out.

The YouTube channel Primitive Technology is one of my favorites.

In this fascinating little video, they explain a very simple technique for making charcoal in a closed pot.

The applications of charcoal in the compost pile are very useful. You can simply add some to your worm bins, the goal of doing this will be to keep the moisture of your bin important in the summer months.

It will supercharge your worm compost in nutrients.

80 years ago, Europe had to fight against those who denied its freedom. That is why we need the celebration of #dday to never forget what happened.

To prevent history from repeating itself, the only thing you can do is vote against those fascists in disguise who try to lie to you and pretend that they are not those Nazis.

All the signs are there, and that is why we are not standing for any candidate, we are standing against those who spend their days trying to deceive us all.

For #PrideMonth a lot of lawmakers are trying to make the #Pride flag illegal 🌈

If you do not like our flag, all you have to do is close your eyes like you already do for #covid #climatechange #genocide or the #homeless the list is long so it should not be an effort.

Here we think there should be a lot more issues that you need to be concerned with.

We welcome the #lgbtq community and we think that the planet does not care who dares to be responsible for her. That job needs to be done and it will honor you.

compost, 9 days ago to LGBTQ

Our society has failed to recognize that life is much more complex than blue for boys and pink for girls. That is why we have the #lgbtq umbrella.

Every human has the right to pursue happiness, this is why we try to understand who we are and how we can be happy.

WE ARE HERE.

We will keep celebrating #prideMonth because the same people who think #lgbtqia people are such a problem do not see why sending a convicted candidate to the white house who had an affair with a porn star and want a Christian day of visibility is a problem.

Fuck the patriarchy... Your one shot to end this on election day. Choose wisely.

Controversial topic I would like to discuss.

Because I lived a lot of my life with vegan people who had to lecture me a lot about how the meat industry is evil I would like to remind a few things about growing veggies.

A lot of the veggies we buy at the store and eat are sadly produced with a lot of toxic products.

Veggies require pesticides so that they will look pristine in the store and the buyer will feel confident to buy them.

Veggies also requires fertilizers that can be just as toxic for the environment than for you.

Unless veggies are grown in a very organic fashion and on a soil that focus on biology only and not on chemistry, you are not being much different than the guy who buys his steak from the conventional meat industry.

This is why it is important to understand how our soils work and why we need to stop poisoning ourself with the food we eat.
