This #socal #heatwave that is coming by Friday is way too early and as such will be really hard on some plants. Succulents will be fine, but any woody plant with new growth will lose a lot of water to transpiration. Heatwaves aren’t supposed to come until the new growth has barked over to keep water in.
Give thes plants and trees a deep watering NLT Wednesday or Thursday. Like 5 gal each. Enough to sink deep and remain available as surface moisture evaporates. Mulch will help too. When the leaves start wilting it’s already too late. But if they’ve been prewatered they’ll recover.

and in the immediate how to help us, everything goes towards balancing bills and trying to to have enough to GTFO here. I haven't even dared consider finding an apartment but if we could get a couple thousand more together I'll have some more options:
payment methods below, with display names since it's different than here.
CashApp: http://cash.app/$ceahettan (a bunch of muppets)

We’re looking for donations (George Soros isn’t helping us out this time!) (or any time, for that matter)
HERE IS THE CURRENT LIST OF GENERAL SUPPLIES WE NEED TO COLLECT DONATIONS OF FOR THE 50501 #SOCALUNITES 4/5 PROTEST IN DOWNTOWN LA!
Please circulate within your friends/family to see if they are willing to help us out - especially for the easy things like bottled water and snacks! Everybody has that laying around already so the more we can get donations of those things, the easier it will be for us to put our budget toward bigger items like A/V.
If you have something to donate, let me know so that we can coordinate pickup / drop off of donations to get them all in one place BY THIS FRIDAY 4/4.
Masking tape Electrical tape Black sharpies / permanent markers Ziploc bags Rubber bands Paper towels Bottled water Snacks (granola bars, trail mix, protein bars, etc) Masks Hand sanitizer Clorox / antibacterial wipes Sunscreen Benadryl cream / gel for allergic reactions / bug bites US flags (any sizes) Arts and craft supplies (markers, chalk, etc) Gift cards to help with printing expenses (Staples, Office Depot, etc) Gift cards to help with other supplies (Lowe’s, etc)

Planning to travel to San Diego and Los Angeles during May & June. Submit the form on my website if you'd like to be considered for a spot. I need genuine inquiries to justify the cost of travel so this helps me gauge how long to stay for & exactly when to come
Dates for travel & last minute availability will be released via my newsletter when details are solidified.
Hello from post-Equinox heat wave here in the sacred Mojave.
We see with the return of the sun also the return of young tree leaves, bees, dragonflies, and so much more. The cover crops I failed to grow last year are sprouting en masse in newly finished infiltration basins, irrigated with greywater from the communal house, and I've even seen mushrooms that I've inoculated into straw beds fruit after rains. So much of this feels like hope. Our young chickens are enjoying their first unsupervised forays into their little fenced run (until they're big enough to trust foraging), and we saw our first Great Horned Owl a few weeks ago.
Our website is live, and I hope you'll join us if you haven't already. We're releasing our first newsletter Monday, trying to put to digital paper Equinox contemplations, and bring you along on this journey with us.
It's free, and we appreciate your support.
We are also trying to get a few trees in the ground before it gets too hot. If you feel up to monetary support to help us with purchasing saplings, we don't have our own ko-fi or paid tiers of the newsletter offering, yet, but we can accept donations (or purchases that support the ranch) through Siin's ko-fi:

We appreciate & love you all, being to being. Stay safe out there.
Siin & Star

If anyone else rides a bike in Orange County and wants to join a queer (& allies) group ride at a casual pace tomorrow morning: http://theunlikelycyclist.com/new-events/a4acc7ebtttj8cwyyxmx2a5jzpezkm
I was assured that eBikes were fine since one of the organizers just had a knee replacement and will be riding hers (and this will be her first time out riding since the surgery...aww)
