First fruits from the sanshō pepper (Zanthoxylum piperitum) from @onegreenworld a prickly ash with incredibly fragrant leaves and mouth-numbing seeds like it’s relative Szechuan pepper. 🍋⛽️😝😋 #sansho #sanshopepper #japanesepricklyash #zanthoxylumpiperitum #comfortablynumb #urbangardening

Original haze at 14 weeks. Hoping to get it further next time but I dragged pests into the flower space. Hard to place the smell but it isn’t faint. #originalhaze #ohaze #haze #narrowleafdrugcultivar #nld #muggles

“…and then (he kept thinking) there was that man out in Jersey, the one who started to chop his trees down, one by one, the man who began talking about how he would take his house to pieces, brick by brick, because he faced a problem incapable of solution, probably, so he began to hack at the trees in the yard, began to pluck with trembling fingers at the bricks in the house. Even if a house is not washable, it is worth taking down. It is not till later that the exhaustion sets in.

But it is inevitable that they will keep changing the doors on you, he said, because that is what they are for; and the thing is to get used to it and not let it unsettle the mind. But that would mean not jumping, and you can't. Nobody can not jump. There will be no not-jumping. Among rats, perhaps, but among people never. Everybody has to keep jumping at a door (the one with the circle on it) because that is the way everybody is, especially some people. You wouldn't want me, standing here, to tell you, would you, about my friend the poet (deceased) who said, 'My heart has followed all my days something I cannot name'? (It had the circle on it.) And like many poets, although few so beloved, he is gone. It killed him, the jumping. First, of course, there were the preliminary bouts, the convulsions, and the calm and the willingness…

And there was the man out in Jersey, because I keep thinking about his terrible necessity and the passion and trouble he had gone to all those years in the indescribable abundance of a householder's detail, building the estate and the planting of the trees and in spring the lawn-dressing and in fall the bulbs for the spring burgeoning, and the watering of the

grass on the long light evenings in summer and the gravel for the driveway (all had to be thought out, planned) and the decorative borders, probably, the perennials and the bug spray, and the building of the house from plans of the architect, first the sills, then the studs, then the full corn in the ear, the floors laid on the floor timbers, smoothed, and then the carpets upon the smooth floors and the curtains and the rods therefor...

Blueberry cut from @archiveseeds @archive.portland bringing an end to the backyard boogie pandemic edition. Huge fluffy and leafy kolas with an intensely sweet and fruity smell. Would have liked another couple weeks but progressed nicely in the past week or so. #blueberry #archiveseedbank #dabneyblue #dabneyblueberry #compostgrown #homegrown #oregongrown #sungrown #backyardboogie #freedomfour #OMMP #urbangardening

Porcini, white chanterelles, and lots of other beautiful fruits on a perfect day hike. #boletusedulis #kingporcini #porcini #steinpilz #cantherellussubalbidus #whitechanterelle #boletusmirabilis #admirablebolete #coralmushroom #angelswings #forestbathing #wyeast #fungi

First Western matsutake (Tricholoma murrillianum) of the season. Lots of other species starting to fruit now too. #tricholomamurrillianum #westernmatsutake #whitematsutake #matsutake #pinemushroom #forestbathing #wyeast #foraging #allthattherainpromisesandmore #mycology #mycophile #fungi

Harvested a few more buckets of elderberries from the cut. Cleaned 5 kg to add to lambic and dehydrated the rest. #elderberry #elderberries #sambucus #sambucuscerulea #foraging #forestbathing #lambic #lambish #mixedfermentation #wyeast #mthood

I am no earthling, I drink moonshine on Mars and mistake meteors for stars cause I can’t hold my liquor. But I can hold my breath and ascend like wind to the black hole and play galaxaphones on the fire escapes of your soul, blowing tunes through lunar wombs, impregnating stars giving birth to suns that darken the skins that skin our drums. And we be beating infinity over sacred hums, spinning funk like myrrh until Jesus comes. #saulwilliams #ohm #galaxaphones #funklikemyrrh #chem4 #chemdog #dognotdawg #spacedout #keepcalm

“When light returns to its source, it takes nothing of what it has illuminated. It may have shown on a garbage dump, or a garden, or in the center of a human eye. No matter. It goes, and when it does, the open plain becomes passionately desolate, wanting it back.”

Happy Autumnal Equinox! Thanks @heady_mulch for these amazing sunflowers, I’ve been enjoying them all summer 🙏 #autumnalequinox #southwardequinox #rumi #dyinglaughing

Zamal Bliss x Equanimity from @foggytopfarm very difficult to photograph with its narrow leaves, wild branching structure, and silver and lavender blush. Greasy resin and lots of terpinolene, smells more like terpentine and anise than the citrusy ‘jack’ profile. #compostgrown #homegrown #oregongrown #sungrown #lightdep #growyourown #plantmoreseeds #OMMP #urbangardening #backyardboogie #nld #narrowleafdrugcultivar

“If you received some type of lesson, or something to aspire you to do whatever you do...

You know what I'm saying, trying to get wherever you trying to go...

Or you know, or a reflection, whatever, you know its all relevant.

It’s all, it’s all relevant.

You know everything counts.

You know it ain't all good, but everything counts.”
