Im building up my soil and this year I planted a mix of chicories, radishes/turnips, and native grasses. Should I mow it down now or leave standing and let the snow press it down?

Northern Ontario, very sandy poor soil. New field I converted from a spruce/soft maple forest a few years back. Im trying hard to build up the soil. Just over an acre in size.

Pine Tree Mulch

Pine Tree Mulch

We took down a (maybe) 50 year old pine tree from our backyard as it was leaning A LOT towards the neighbours house like the Tower of Pisa, thinning foliage. It made us very sad to do so and we held off for a while. But the arborist chipped it up nicely and left us with a huge heap on the driveway. 1.5 days of hard work, but the whole gardens front and back are thickly mulched and maybe we won’t need to buy any for 2 years or so. I have no one else in my life who might appreciate this, so I’m sharing with the internet. Cheers.

Bonobos transformed how we think about animal societies. Can we save the last of the ‘hippy apes’?

Bonobos transformed how we think about animal societies. Can we save the last of the ‘hippy apes’?

They are peaceful, female-led and use sex in everyday interactions. Now a new conservation scheme could offer a lifeline to our critically endangered close relatives living on the Congo river

A few dozen large nests appear in the mist of equatorial dawn, half-hidden behind a tangle of vines and leaves. That is where the bonobos sleep, 12 metres above the ground. But it has rained all night, and the primates are in no hurry to get up. It is 6.30am when the first head emerges. It gives a cry, a sharp bark, and another silhouette unfolds from its cocoon of branches. And then another. Within five minutes, the whole group is awake – yawning, stretching, straightening. Their features are fine, their limbs long and delicate, their build less stocky than that of chimpanzees, their closest cousins.
