DO YOU HAVE ANY REASON FOR CHOOSING THE SPECIFIC PLANT THAT YOU DID? I love lavender! But also there was an abundance and I was curious what the difference in pigment will be in summer vs. winter since there was seemingly no pigment left when looking at the plant.


HAS THIS EXPERIENCE ALTERED OR SHIFTED YOUR VALUE OR RELATIONSHIP WITH YOUR PERSONAL LANDSCAPE? IF YES, HOW? IF NO, WHAT DID THIS EXPERIENCE BRING UP I grew up in the neighborhood that I foraged in, so it was interesting to notice things differently and note the ways my adult eyes view this environment differently.
