Hear, hear - the only way I can get past overwhelm is focusing on something I can do, even if it's a tiny step.

Thanks for the words of encouragement 🙏🏾

Your veg rows looked delish! We'll take 1 or 2 of your extras!! [ If only: ;-) ]

Glad to hear you say "none of us can do everything. All we need to do is keep learning and reading when we can, make the odd step here and there within our means, such as using water butts and not using pesticides. Share what we learn and stick together."

You take an optimistic view, for sure. Yet if we each do what we can, in our own way, it's making some contribution for the good. And we ourselves can feel good that we're doing the right thing.

Enjoyed your read. Thanks.

Wise words Jack. We have installed a water butt this year and I have stopped using pesticides. As you say hopefully even small steps will help.

Enjoyed the info on wasps and their nests are truly wonderful....I also fear them sadly as I had one in my too dry compost heap last year and disturbed it accidentally. They didn't like it!

and thanks for your wise words on info overload. We have to do what we can. And not despair.
