Hello… Now that 2025 appears to be in full swing, a number of events are starting to pop up on the calendar. Looking to meet some other EcoRighters? Read on and hopefully one of the many opportunities we highlight will work for you and your schedule.
Hello and happy end of 2024. We know… the year has 11 more days to work its magic. But given the number of out of office replies I have been getting this week, I think many of you/us are checked/checking out and getting ready to get our holiday on.
December is winding down… I say this because while we still have a few weeks before the new year, we only have a few days before my birthday, which is in the second half of the month. I hope you’re soaking in the holiday spirit!
December! How I missed you. In the DMV the best month of the year was greeted by some very welcome (by me) cooler temperatures more akin to what I was used to in my New England days. Just missing the snow. Come on, winter! You can do it!
The nights are cooling, the leaves are turning, it’s time for social gatherings around the firepit and sleeping with the windows open.
Hurricane Milton is top of mind for the team at republicEn.org. We know many of our Florida members and friends are at...
Our hearts are aching for those caught in the devastation of Hurricane Helene, which impacted members of our own team. While they, their families, and their homes are fine, being amid so much destruction takes a toll. Bob Inglis and Price Atkinson, we are thinking of you and I know our entire EcoRight community is wishing all those in the storm’s path a speedy rebuild.
Here comes the rain again… looks like a potentially soggy weekend for me, but I’m not sad about it. My garden has been a little crunchy with our lack of rain, so I will take it!
TGIF! If you’re looking at the graphic above and thinking how pretty it is, it’s the clover of Angela Larck’s “lawn” and it’s much friendlier for the bees than traditional grass. That theme connects to our podcast episode of the week, which you must listen to if you haven’t already! And if you have any questions about converting your lawn to habitat, you have friends on this team to give their advice!
It's long weekend eve! If you've opened this email before setting out for a 3-day weekend, I am honored. If you're...
Hello, readers! I’m on the road again this weekend, this time in Florida, which is sort of ironic given the next set of stories I’m sharing today…
Hello and truly happy Friday! If you’re the type who opens emails as you receive them, I am just meeting up with my son, who is graduating from college on Saturday! So excuse me while I have a proud momma moment! (Except poor guy doesn’t have a job; the one he was offered fell through and he’s in a scramble. If you know anyone looking to hire an excellent researcher/writer—or any sort of entry level position with a chance to learn on the job—let’s talk!)
