I feel like I always think of solar punk as a macro thing where a lot has to change but there are still smaller wins we can implement, what have you been doing?

@Capitanmaroon we replaced our front lawn with raised garden beds a few years ago. Do we grow a lot? No. Are we especially good at gardening? Gosh no. But tonight I went outside, picked a cucumber and a handful of tomatoes, and really enjoyed my dinner. Planning on setting up a little table soon so we can give away any tomatoes beyond what we can use.

This is me, but instead of eating my delicious peppercinis a bunch of hornwoms devour the whole goddamn plant.

that's so cool!! I would much rather have tomatoes than a lawn. Also very cool that you're giving away your tomatoes - I think I'll try something like that with my basil!
