Mossy Mojo Terrariums creates sustainable environments in glass | Home & Garden

A resurgence in 1970s gardening trends has happened in the past few years. From rattan planters to macramé hangers, new gardeners have taken a shine to what we now consider “vintage” hobbies. This resurgence collided with the pandemic, which seemed to create the perfect storm for both outdoor and hip indoor gardens of the ‘60s and ‘70s.

During the pandemic, droves of people took up gardening as a way to find fulfillment with their extra time spent at home. This wasn’t just regulated to backyard vegetable gardens, though, as bringing the outdoors in was high on the priority list of those working from home.

I’ve noticed this swell of interest in indoor gardening has persisted — including obsessive interests in houseplants, seed starting and plant propagation, and my favorite — terrariums.

When you stop and think about it, terrariums are perhaps the most perfect way to bring nature into your home. With its own little ecosystem, a terrarium captures all the beauty and simplicity of nature, requiring little work on our end.

Over the course of the last year, a local couple has turned their love of building terrariums into a business. Mossy Mojo Terrariums is the brainchild of Moriah Gendy and Josh Myrick, a small, green business that aims to provide sustainable indoor gardens for their clientele.

Dear Aggie: Sustaining the resolution to garden | Home and Garden

Dear Aggie: Sustaining the resolution to garden | Home and Garden

Dear Aggie: As a gardening New Year’s resolution, I’d like to be more sustainable in my yard. What actions can I consider?

This is a terrific plan! There are three important factors you can do to enhance sustainability in your landscape. Very first of all, keep away from pesticides and artificial fertilizers. Insecticides just really don’t zero in on insect pests, they get rid of all bugs, even the advantageous ones. Various widespread pesticides are poisonous to bees. A course of pesticides identified as neonicotinoids have been implicated in bee colony collapse condition. Also, fungicides and herbicides can upset the sensitive internet of microbial equilibrium in soils. Once this net is disturbed it is very difficult to restore.

Chemical fertilizers are wonderful for fast results, but they do practically nothing to improve the soil. If the nutrients are not taken up instantly by plants, they usually leach into waterways. On a huge scale this can lead to algal blooms. The addition of organic fertilizers like compost and manure will help the soil maintain onto water and nutrients, boost microbial action, and lessen erosion and soil compaction.

A 2nd strategy is to plant indigenous species. Native vegetation engage in a vital role in the natural environment by supporting indigenous birds and insects, primarily pollinators. Over countless numbers of yrs of evolution all of these organisms have formulated methods to get the job done together, and they all enjoy essential roles. Non-indigenous vegetation add considerably less to ecosystems. Moreover, indigenous plants have fewer management difficulties considering the fact that they are improved tailored to the regional climate and soils.

In relation to this you need to stay clear of planting flower hybrids, cultivars, and versions. Plant breeders are always developing novel bouquets, but typically the pollen and nectar is bred out of these flowers. An insect wastes treasured vitality by browsing bouquets that offer you no reward. In addition, bugs may well not figure out flowers that have been improved through breeding. In the case of bouquets that are bred for the recently well-known ‘double blooms’, the petals are so dense that insects can’t achieve the pollen or nectar. ‘Straight’ native species have not been altered and present the most aid to native pollinators.

Lastly, hold your soil lined. If you have a yard location that lies bare outside of the expanding time, plant a address crop. Affordable and simple to locate deal with crops for household gardeners involve once-a-year rye and oats. Each can be planted at the conclusion of the escalating season. They will ‘winter kill’ when temperatures get far too cold. The lifeless vegetation serves as a natural mulch, blocking early spring weeds. You can leave the mulch in location and plant by way of it, or till the put in plant make any difference into the soil. Either way, the protect crop stops erosion, loosens soil, preserves microbial activity, provides nutrition, and sequesters carbon.

Compost Girl: Beyond the Bin | Home and Garden

Compost Girl: Beyond the Bin | Home and Garden

We’ve all listened to the phrase just before: There’s no these types of area as away.

Whatever we toss into the (recycling, composting, and landfill) carts exterior of our properties doesn’t just magically vanish — it ends up someplace.

For us in the metropolis of Napa, the things in your landfill cart heads to the Devlin Road Transfer Station and then, ordinarily, to the large hole in the floor we call a landfill in Solano County exactly where it will stay “forever” buried.

The stuff in your recycling and composting carts comes to our facility referred to as the Elements Diversion Facility (MDF) or Napa’s Recycling & Composting Facility, just north of Jameson Canyon Highway. Men and women, devices and ingenious techniques assistance to sort and different, earning the recyclable merchandise in fact recyclable as a commodity, and the food items scraps, soiled paper, yard trimmings and grape pomace into compost.

In October, we hosted an open up dwelling of types at the MDF for the community that permitted for tours of the facility to see what accurately happens behind the scenes: how we form, different, clean up, and make recyclable materials that can be offered as commodities. We also confirmed (off) our condition-of-the-artwork composting facility, exactly where in 60 times your brown/inexperienced compost cart components become compost, a soil modification.

People are also reading…

It is not every working day that the standard general public receives to walk all over the MDF to see what exactly we get in our recycling and compost (nevertheless we do present tours all 12 months round – just e mail us).

To say some persons were being shocked is an understatement.

Shock resonated not only from the quantity of substance, but also the form of contamination (not recyclable or compostable supplies) we get frequently in our recycling stream.

So numerous pieces of delicate plastic from plastic baggage, to wrappers, to air pillows. Tender plastic had infiltrated the piles of gathered recycling like glitter on a child’s artwork task – it was just about everywhere.

Diapers, apparel, electric cables, batteries – so quite a few items that didn’t belong. And that was just in the recycling!

So what occurs when we have so a great deal contamination? Well, relies upon on the style of contamination. Some contamination, like batteries and electronics, result in fires. We just experienced another truck fireplace because a person experienced thrown rechargeable batteries into their carts. Batteries are not authorized in any of your curbside carts – they have to go to a independent locale (like the Ace Hardware) to head to a battery recycler.

Non-explosive/non-dangerous contamination usually means that 12 of the 24 people today hand sorting our content are focused to getting rid of it, compared to actually separating out the recyclables – leaving some recyclables at the conclude of the line to be landfilled as an alternative. It really is costly and environmentally unhappy and disappointing.

Wish-biking (when 1 throws some thing into their recycling cart in hopes it is recyclable, not recognizing if it is) arrived up a great deal in each tour. Tour goers overtly admitted to experience guilty throwing into their landfill due to the fact they didn’t: a) know if it were being recyclable or b) just felt responsible. But seeing the amount of money of contamination and how considerably time/electrical power/assets we use to clear away contamination, it was obvious that when in doubt – discover out (versus just throwing it in your recycling).

With around 200 attendees, we hope to host another working day of excursions wherever the general public can appear out and see what comes about outside of your bins.
