Today I reconnected with our August VI(R)P, Dr. Mike McCann to help prepare for a many-thousand plant and tree planting in Jamaica Bay #gatewaynps. When he's not shucking oysters with us, Mike works for the Nature Conservancy restoring oyster beds and going wherever the city needs another set of hands!

Living your life by the moon: While preparing for October's RP, I've been struck by how out of touch I've felt with the non-human world - so I've decided to live the rest of my month by the moon cycle. Right now we're in waning gibbous - the period right after the full moon. At this point, you're supposed to give up anything that is no longer serving you - which for me is, like, everything but you guys...
RPs! We're thrilled to introduce you to our October VI(R)P, Melissa Madara. On the 24th, she'll tell you about her shop @catlandbooks and is giving you a crash course in tarot.
