I look at life the same way I garden

🌱I grow organically, without pesticides, herbicides or synthetic fertilizers, because no matter how much effort it takes, the quality and health matter more to me than the yield.

🌱I let it do its thing and just go support where needed. Yes, I could be more intentional, but I do what I have the capacity for at the moment.

🌱 Y’all might get me for this one, but I don’t mind sharing with the deer and squirrels to a certain degree. I’m here to share, we all live here, but there’s a limit to how much you’re gonna take before I set up barriers. I haven’t applied peppers as a deterrent in a while so the squirrels are getting bold again. I haven’t chased them away, but I’m taking note and will handle it when I’m ready. Always humanely though.

🌱I always do my best to pay attention to the specific needs of each individual plant to get the best results. They’re living things that I want to pour the same energy into me as I give., but even when the expectation isn’t met, assess whether to save or discard, but never just haphazardly. We feed one another, and even if I couldn’t eat you, you’ll be compost and seeds for the future.

🌱I live and let live in regards to predators as long as they keep to their own business and don’t bother myself or anything I’m in charge of protecting.

This post wasn’t about gardening. Water and tend to yours as you please, but this is what works for me😉

As this year winds down and we start planning for our spring garden, don’t forget to tend to the garden that is your life too. I love you 💛

Stepped out my door this rainy Saturday morning to see I have a visitor. I set down some lettuce by him, and will return with Carrots, apples and spinach if he's still here whn I come back out later. Homie is probably hiding from all the predatory birds that love around here😭😭

You're safe for now babe🥰

Remember not to touch wildlife, and don't feed them processed foods. Typically the rule is to not feed them at all, but this is my way of giving back when animals seek refuge...like how I keep my pups old water bowl for the lost dogs I see roam from time to time. Someone's lost animals are always finding my home lol

We have a limited stock of railroad spikes available!! Click link in bio

Railroad spikes hold the spirit of the railroad. The railroad is synonymous with famous Hoodoo spirits such as Railroad Bill and John Henry...
I'll link the stories I've written about them in the comments.
There are three main energies of the railroad spike.
The spike of the railroad is commonly used because it is essentially a nail. In Hoodoo nails play a significant part signifying binding, protection, and to hold in place. Although the spike is not the only thing used in Hoodoo when it comes to workings with materials of the railroad it seems to be the most popular nowadays. Other items that can be used are bolts, rocks, and dirt, just to name a few.
The second aspect of the railroad spike is the traveling energy of the railroad. Old workings may consist of tying one's torn clothing around a fed spike so they can keep progressing and keep "going" in life like a train.
Others may use the spike with hair and other ingredients to create confusion, dive out an enemy, to keep them "running", they won't know if they're "coming or going."
The third main aspect is the protective spirit of iron and strength. So, many may used fed railroad spikes to protect one's home or carry with them on their person or in their car, just to name a few.

Areas of influence:
• Workings with the spike may include chasing one away or creating unsettlement in one's mind.
• Protection of the home.
• Protection of the vehicle.
• Bring prosperity.
• Create crops for farmers. Or encouraging seeds to grow in soil.
• Helps with luck and gambling.
• Freedom and court case.
