Recently the New York Supreme Court judge ruled that New York City's vaccine mandate was arbitrary and capricious, determining that 16 plaintiffs deserve their jobs back along with back pay. The "Garvey decision" is the most important victory yet for NYC workers fighting the city’s vaccine mandate, but according to independent journalist Aimee, "it’s on ice while it waits to go to an appeals court. Whether it stands on appeal or another similarly broad case succeeds will have life-changing impacts on thousands of New Yorkers and also have national relevance with the precedents and norms it sets."

Here’s how to never buy mulch again. Did you know that the crews who trim trees for power lines will often dump the mulched branches at your house for free? We drove by a crew on Friday and within a couple hours they were at our farm dumping an entire truckload of fresh mulch that we can use for our garden! Unintended benefits: free forage for the goats and a free playground for the human kids. Try it out next time you see these crews. Just pull over if it’s safe and ask them if they offer the service. Grab the foreman’s phone number to stay in touch for future jobs.
Lily got a beehive for Christmas from her grandparents and we spent the day after assembling it. We are fortunate to have had offers from several local bee experts to help begin our colony and teach us proper beekeeping. One potential challenge is that a couple years ago I was stung by a yellow jacket on the thumb and my hand blew up like a baseball bat. Two months later I was stung by another yellow jacket in the exact same spot. This time I got welts all over my body. I’ve been stung a bunch throughout my life with no issues but now I have to carry an epi pen with me everywhere. I guess we will see what happens with the new hive-venture. Honey here we come!
I find it interesting how we were all directed to be triggered. Over Bill Gates being a large "farm land" owner. And we all got concerned over moves involving food. And sure, there are some. Meanwhile, Beyond Meat is failing. The whole fake meat game is in financial peril.
The "farm land" is going to AI Data Centers. They just want hooks for power, water and resources to build and maintain them.
It's interesting how we're led to look one way, when the real plot is in a different direction.
Anyone make fermented carrot sticks? I've made them in the past and they didn't quite come out right. I seem to have good luck with sauerkraut but fermenting with brine (vs. just salting) has been more trial and error for me. Maybe I'm fermenting the carrots too long (2 weeks)? I want them to have a bite/slight crunch but also be sour. Thoughts? Suggestions?
