New episode of Risking Enchantment out today. I’m joined by @rdluiken to discuss embodiment in gardening as well as understanding God and the sacraments through nature and the seasons. Listen on the link below or on your podcast app. https://t.co/8OCA2a1x4O

MN History Day is still in need of lots of judges! Do you have a few hours to give feedback on student projects (it's all virtual this year)?
Happy new year! If you've put together a list of resolutions, we hope you've included "Judge for History Day" on your list! Judge sign-ups for History Day is officially open! Check out the attachment for more information and to register officially: https://t.co/JJaGRHZtMY

I was today years old when I learned that the National Black Farmer Association provides scholarships from $2,500 to $5,000 for Black students pursuing agriculture-related studies. Please share, so we can farm for the culture. (Citation: Farming While Black, 2018)

As the mother of a 1.5 year old who CAN'T be vaccinated and CAN'T wear a mask, I'm really excited we're focused on protecting the most vulnerable among us here.
This just in: fall plans for @UWMadison include no vaccination requirement, no mask requirement, removal of physical distancing, campus buildings at full capacity, prohibition on asking whether anyone has been vaccinated. I hate this.

McGinley compellingly lays out how families, friends, and parishes will play the central role. The Catholic Church teaches that Christianity is not merely belief—it is a lived reality. Catholicism must be lived at home, in community, and in everyday…

I really became a botanist when I went to Ireland and started noticing the plants around me that had always seemed to blend into the background.
