Autumn, can you wait just a few more days? We're not done with summer yet. 🤔 #feelslikefall #foodforest #forestgarden #forestagriculture #agroecology #agroforestry #blacklocust #blacklocustlumber #deerfence #woods

Albizia julibrissin or Mimosa is a fast growing tree native to Asia. Most people know it by its wonderful smelling fluffy pink summer flowers. It can be invasive but in our area frequently gets killed by wilt. We love this particular volunteer for its nitrogen fixing ability and open structure that makes for a good arbor. We routinely strip the leaves and throw them on the ground to give nitrogen to other plants. The flowers are edible....if you don't mind the texture of a feather. Best used as a garnish. 🤓 #mimosa #albizia #albiziajulibrissin #edibleflowers #dynamicaccumulator #beneficialplants #nitrogenfixer #nitrogenfixing #nitrogenfixation

Asters are a sure sign of fall's imminent arrival. #aster #asteraceae #beneficialplants #pollinatorgarden #pollinatorplants #nativeplants

This giant earthworm was so squirmy it was hard to catch! Earthworms not only break down organic matter but they also bring important aeration and structure to soils through their tunnels. #earthworm #nightcrawler #soilbuilding #soil #foodforest #forestgarden #forestagriculture #agroecology #agroforestry

Andrewshek is definitely the boss. Not only does he scare away predators but he also keeps the ducks in line. #duckprotector #fowlplay #goose #gander #fowl #foodforest #forestgarden #forestagriculture #agroecology #agroforestry #ducks

More of the celosia we seeded into the compost before it was spread. Did you know the leaves and tender stems are edible? And the flowers are great for cutting. #amaranthfamily #cockscomb #celosia #cutflower #foodforest #forestgarden #agroforestry #agroecology #forestagriculture

Apparently fallen plums are great for attracting a huge variety of wasps. This one was easily 2" long. There were a few yellow jacket looking wasps but overall this was a calm bunch just enjoying one of our best fruit crops! #wasp #chickasawplum #plums #localfruit #beneficialinsects #foodforest #forestgarden #agroforestry #agroecology #forestagriculture #permaculture
