I pray that the land will be allowed to flourish when you go . In South Africa a lot of us eschew raking even - we advocate to leave leaf litter on the ground to nurture soil life , insect life and provide mulch . Of course the majority still rake and blowers are sadly on the increase .
Yes, I truly hope the land will be loved and allowed the flourish when we go. I alslo leave the leaves and it is heartening to hear that you and your community advocate for leaf litter for soil and insect life. I put a link to an older piece I wrote about that in this one now after reading your comment, so thank you. 💚
Beautiful post Vanessa. Thanks for the share of the impact of fireworks. There has always been a part of me that has never been a fan. May your move to a new space be smooth and with as much ease as a move can possibly be. 🩵
thank you Vanessa for writing this ode to the fireflies! i just experienced them in their magnificence dancing up from the marshy landscape into the trees last weekend visiting old friends in High Falls, NY near New Paltz- I am moving there imminently! sending love, Hilary
