Mama Mantis

Leave a comment

Our citrus tree needed a good haircut yesterday and while pruning we found lots of hidden fruit and a praying mantis nest! So we relocated Mama Mantis to our eggplant area that’s filled with bugs!

Praying Mantis nest
Moved Mama to a new spot!
Citrus has struggled to produce fruit for 5 years but maybe this year! 🤞🏼

Things I love: justice in all forms; flowers; locally grown food; breastfeeding; feminist theory; outdoor adventures, Divine interventions; 4-H and coffee. Things I loathe: racism; homophobia; toxic crap; misogyny; bad public policy and pitbull-haters. My formal education is in sociology, gender studies, and public policy. I've also been a Lactation Educator; 4-H professional, a Certified Master Gardener/Permaculture Design and spent 15 years working to end domestic and sexual violence. I probably still have powerpoint on all these topics. I've been blogging for many years on dozens of topics- everything from women's health to breed-specific legislation. But the thing I like to write about most is my gardening, food adventures and my kids. So there you have it. Be a kind human. Thanks.
