Description

Trees and Weeds, what more could you want to know ;) We are mixing it up this time to talk FORAGING! Who else is ready for spring!? Tara & Steph talk some general foraging rules as well as highlight our favorite early spring plants- spoiler alert, they are trees and weeds.

In honor of Black History Month, this week's shout out goes to Black Cotton! Farmer Julius is rebranding cotton and taking the history of cotton and making it his own. He has some beautiful decor pieces available too! Go support them at BlackCotton
