Best parts of gardening are moments like these. She was just sleeping, sun not quite fully up yet. #bumblebee #gardening
Tonight’s harvest. We are up to almost 3lbs of blueberries total harvested 🫐 Had to thin the carrots again, there are a few bigs I am waiting as long as possible to pluck… then, the yearly carrot cake 🍰 #gardening #spokane #spokanegardener
Can we please talk about this? I have never grown cucumbers and carrots this big before. Exciting stuff—now to replicate whatever I did right this year 🤣 #gardener #veggieharvest #spokane
Nope. No thank you. I know it could be worst but this Seattle girlie is dying inside.
I didn’t realize yesterday was National Mural Day! We are not quite done with this one but we are so nearly there! An incredible amount of progress was made this week. So proud of the kids involved in this one! #art #murals #spokane #spokanemural
Good morning 🫛🍓 Smaller harvest days… but carrots and tomatoes are coming. Still so much lettuce that is ready to harvest but more than I can eat. #spokane #gardening #gardenharvest
The kids are marveling at how the line work really completes the look. They are all working so hard. Crossing fingers we can be done by next weekend! #spokanemurals #spokane #muralart #rivercityyouth
Missing my garden… but I would trade it all to move back home any day.
A slice of my chaos garden. Some call it whimsical. #spokanegarden #pnwgarden
I have more lettuce than I know what to do with this year. The strawberries are just about done. Thinned some more carrots… and omg… the chamomile smells so so good 🌼 #gardening #spokane
When you are the dm for a group of 10 year olds DnD campaign and they are getting their acceptance letters to a school of magic. #dungeonmaster #dnd #magicschool #dndhomebrew
Thinning carrots is always somewhat heartbreaking. It starts to get easier as they grow into tiny snacks. #gardening #spokane
Unreal, we had one on our deck this time last year and it blew my mind.
5 more hours put into this one with some of the coolest kids 🌻 #rivercityyouth #spokane #murals
Does anyone else just feel gross posting on IG? I don’t plan to start posting regularly again… but it’s where most of my community hangs out & I DO want to share my work—but there’s something so hostile about the platform. Anyway, I miss feeling comfortable there. #pnwartist #muralist #spokane
My heart lies in this work and I feel incredibly lucky that this is the work I get to do. This is an incredible group of kids and I am incredibly proud of each of them. We will be working on this project until the end of June with a big reveal event shortly after 🩵 4/4 #pnwartist #spokaneartist
…of intimidation where I could see all 5 participants unsure of how to start. From there, I watched them all warm up to the task and overcome their own personal challenges. It was a privilege to teach and to witness. I am incredibly proud of each of them. The end results have been phenomenal 3/4
I was brought onto this project to help coordinate, design, educate and facilitate the application of the mural with the youth involved. One of the coolest parts of the project so far has been when the young people were scaling the reference print outs to the wall. There was a moment… 2/4
Another day, another mural. 🎨 We started this one on Thursday and I am so honored to get to do this work. This mural is in partnership with River City Youth in Spokane, WA where they run youth internships. 1/4 #spokane #rivercityyouth #murals #arteducation
This year… I build the tiniest of frog ponds. And I am in love… but your stream challenges me that I can do more. I must know more about this waterfall 👀
The growing patterns are so different this year. #gardening #greenhouse #spokane
