  • Today, we visited @hectorsgarden, where we discovered an indoor tropical paradise, purchased a "brasshopper," and were surrounded by a plant lover's abundant cornucopia of supplies. 

We are in awe of Josh and Hector's mission and brick and mortar shop. The entryway shines brightly for a community of like minds who love nature to happily walk through, only to be greeted by two wise souls behind the counter. 

Go see for yourself!

  • Bamboo isn’t perfect, but what is?

Did you know that many ruminants eat bamboo as fodder?  Many other animals also utilize bamboo.  Deer, rabbits and rodents eat the bamboo shoots.  Insects make nests inside open canes and birds absolutely love bamboo for protection from predators and as a nesting site. 

Facts:

Bamboo is a grass, not a tree.

Goats, pigs, cows and other ruminants love to eat the shoots and leaves of the bamboo plant.  In fact, ruminants are a great way to help control the spread of bamboo.

Bamboo is extremely useful.  It has been used for ages for food service items, bridges, scaffolding, instruments, brooms, fences, etc, etc…

Dead canes can’t come back to life.

Humans CAN eat bamboo, although shoots should be parboiled for 20 minutes before eating.
