365Caws is now in its 16th year of publication. If I am unable to post daily, I hope readers who love the natural world and fiberarts will seize those days to read the older material. Remember that this has been my journey as well, so you may find errors in my identifications of plants. I have tried to correct them as I discover them. Likewise, I have refined fiberarts techniques and have adjusted recipes, so search by tags to find the most current information. And thank you for following me!

Team Work
Day 184: Thanks to my Team Biota botany partner Joe, my garden is roughly a third bigger than it was yesterday. It is also now framed by timbers as I had always wanted it to be, but could never manage to budget, if in fact I'd been able to find a means to transport them. While Joe busted more sod, I hauled away the piles he'd accumulated, and then after the plot had been expanded, we laid landscape cloth and rolled the timbers into place. I'll maintain the outer edge with the weed-eater, and will spread bark mulch in the interior as soon as I'm done planting. What's next? I have a dwarf mulberry on order, but will have to give the remaining open spaces some careful consideration, "jam fruits" being the only criterion presently in mind. One thing is certain: Joe is destined to reap a jammy reward for his labours.
