Seashells are an important part of coastal ecosystems: they provide materials for birds' nests, a home or attachment surface for algae, sea grass, sponges and a host of other microorganisms. Fish use them to hide from predators, and hermit crabs use them as temporary shelters.

Who doesn't know them, the beautiful yellow blooming forsythia? But did you know that the flowers rarely produce pollen or nectar and are therefore useless for most insects?

Daffodil is one of the first flowers that open their flowers in the spring. In the past, the yellow daffodil was used against diarrhea and cramps. Due to the high toxicity of these plants is strongly discouraged from use in natural medicine. #Spring #Flowers #daffodils #toxicity

Surveying you pond, understanding the sun movement on it and different heights is really important to successfully plan a functional pond!

Hempcrete is a bio-aggregate concrete, where the hemp shives- small pieces of wood from the stalk of the plant- are mixed with either a lime or mud cement to create a durable, eco-friendly building material.

Design from patterns to details.
By stepping back, we can observe patterns in nature and society. These can form the backbone of our designs, with the details filled in as we go. #permacultureprinciples #permaculturedesign #permaculturegarden #regeneration #regenerativefarming

A first sign of spring: snowdrops (Galanthus nivalis). The name comes from the Greek ("gala": milk and "anthos": flower) It describes the color of the flower: milk white.
The snowdrop grows rarely in nature today. That is why the plant is a protected species. #nature #snowdrops
