Free food, for foraging, in Seattle. ... Glenn Herlihy... hopes visitors will practice "ethical harvesting"--taking what they need, or what they can eat right away. But for those feeling greedy, there will be a "thieves garden" containing lower-grade stuff. "We also plan to have a lot of people around, so you’re not going to feel comfortable taking a lot of stuff," he adds....
Falling Fruit’s founders, Caleb Phillips and Ethan Welty, see foraging as more than just another source of… [read post]

"If you say yes, then 1 of 11 posts today is about my 'personal life.' If not, then 0 of 11. Going back before today, I counted 47 posts before I got to one that could arguably be considered about my personal life, and it was only a photograph of our backyard garden with the TT parked next to it."That's me, responding to Pete, who has the impression that other lawprofs blog mainly about law and occasionally put something in about their personal lives, whereas "the reverse is true" for me.

Each Monday we write about the New England environment and way of life seen through our local perspective. Previous posts
By Dave Deegan
Like many New Englanders, we’ve been really busy lately with our garden. The warm growing months are so fleeting here that you have to be ready the minute you can plant veggies and herbs to harvest some good food later in the summer.
It’s been even more hectic this year, because my wife and I acted on our carefully-developed plans of long-overdue… [read post]

Georgia drivers need to be particularly careful to avoid car accidents as we come up on this Memorial Day weekend. We tend to think of New Year's Eve as being particularly dangerous for drivers, and it is. But a lesser-known fact is that people are killed in car crashes in Georgia on all of the holiday weekends, including Memorial Day.
I am a Georgia lawyer who handles wrongful death car accident lawsuit cases, so I see too many terribly sad situations where people are seriously injured or die in… [read post]

Palm Beach polo magnate John Goodman caught a lucky break- it looks like on Friday, May 3, 2013, Palm Beach Circuit Court Judge Jeffrey Colbath granted Goodman’s motion for new trial based on juror misconduct. Criminal defense and criminal appeals lawyers know that such a break is extremely rare indeed. To read of an article about the defense victory, click here.

I’ve always been fascinated with the change of seasons. I marvel at how the bare branches of seemingly lifeless trees and bushes come to life overnight. It’s part of the beauty of nature that never ceases to amaze me.
Just recently I was looking at my garden’s revival. While the garden itself will definitely need some attention in the coming weeks, there is still a natural beauty even in its current status. That’s how I focused on the tree that my father,… [read post]

Suddenly, it's everywhere. Or... I mean... it appears in 2 different (and excellent) articles on the front page of the nytimes.com right now.
1. It's in that article — which I just said I loved — about the political microcosm that is one nutty garden club:
[April Ward] listed many indiscretions she said she had seen, smelled or heard around the shed area on summer nights. Smoking (of more than one substance). Grilling. Bonfires. Club money used to pay for charcoal, propane and food.… [read post]

" I was elected to get rid of that and get things done."
April Ward, the president — arguably ousted — of the Roosevelt Island Garden Club, quoted in a NYT article by Vivian Yee that depicts the political microcosm of a garden club in hilarious, delightful detail.
“Since she came, oh my God, everybody’s fighting,” said Raphael Elbaz, a longtime garden member.... “It’s like the slave became the king.”...
“People start to be afraid of… [read post]

Spring is the season associated with the awakening of nature and rebirth. You see it in the trees and bushes that begin to sprout new shoots and buds. You see it in the leaves of the bulbs that are starting to push up through the ground. You see it the increasing activity of wildlife. And you hear it in the sounds of nature that rise from their wintry slumber.
The other day as I returned home from work, I noticed a loud chirping. I looked around and found one robin… [read post]

An 87 year old woman lies on the ground, her life-force fading quickly. A woman identifying herself as a nurse holds a phone to her ear as a 9-1-1 dispatcher excitedly insists that CPR begin immediately or the dying woman will surely pass. The nurse refuses, claiming it is against her company’s policy to intervene.
“Is there a gardener … any staff? Anybody that doesn’t work for you, anywhere?” the dispatcher asks, according to the seven-minute call.… [read post]
