This week's newsletter has a meaty deep-dive on drip irrigation math (with a worked example from my hugelkultur bed), a heads-up on spider mite season, and a recommendation for the green lacewings I use to keep tomatoes pest-free. I also share a beautiful afternoon spent at Manju Kumar's regenerative food forest — one of the most inspiring gardens in our area — and a Thought of the Week about kinship, gratitude, and serendipity that I didn't expect to write but couldn't put down.
