I’ll be studying again soon and I’m excited for it. It may not happen immediately, but I can’t wait to be back in an academic setting where the conversation is electric, intense and intimate. There’s so much to learn and hopefully I can create a life full of time to dedicate to it.
In the meantime, I’m spending a lot of time with my cat and have decided to test how green my thumb is with a Calathea makoyana, which is actually in the genus Goeppertia, not Calathea. Not that I knew that before picking it up at the Volunteer Park Conservatory’s fundraiser plant sale, in fact, I knew nothing about them until two days ago after I brought her home. Wish me luck.

Went to the cactus and succulent society’s annual Volunteer Park Conservatory sale and got myself some new friends! I got sea plantains (Plantago maritima), Lewisia columbiana, Gonialoe variegata (my friend sold me this! I have this species but one isn’t looking too good and I want a breeding pair), and some free Stapelia grandiflora cuttings!
I donated one of them to Chocolati and told the staff that its name is Spubsy and it will be their new coworker to replace the deceased Fatsia japonica that was formerly in that pot.

Every time I see this plant I can’t believe it’s real. Jade Vine, Volunteer Park Conservatory, May 2023.

I'm doing my own research (googling) but do you have any Seattle valentine's day suggestions? My gf has a hair appointment with the type of stylist you can't find out in farm country so I'll be bringing her into the city and her appt is on V-Day approximately 4-6pm. I'd love to find some other cool and romantic things that are harder to do outside of a major metro. Thx ✌️-- aspiring gentleman dyke
Hello!! It really depends on what your gf’s likes and interests are!! Imo going to Seattle aquarium and great wheel sound like so much fun! But I bet those places will be packed! There’s the Elliot bay book store and you can gift her some books if she likes to read! My top places to get treats would be glo’s diner and coche valley dessert cafe!!! If she likes vintage clothing I really recommend red light! And The volunteer park conservatory if she’s into plants 🩷🪻
I hope this helps even just a little bit and I hope you two have fun!🩷✨🩷✨

event: Volunteer Week
location: around Merrcok
ic timeline: April 24 - 28
ooc timeline: April 22 - 30
Merrock's a town known for giving back… which is why we're spending an entire week doing just that! We have some suggestions for places that you can spend time volunteering, but you're not completely limited to these if you have some ideas of things around town that you would like to do yourself!
cityview park -- spend some time cleaning around the historic park in downtown Merrock.
hospital center -- dedicate your time to doing whatever it is that the staff might need your help with.
merrock railway -- do some clean up along our very own rail system in town, keeping it sparkly and new. ish.
aquatic conservatory -- help the conservatory staff out with feeding and looking after the many wonderful sea creatures.
the lighthouse -- spend some time volunteering to help clean up the area surrounding the lighthouse.
the marina -- help boat owners with tours and cleaning up around the docks.
the swimming beach -- every beach is always in need of a little bit of cleaning!
aster playground -- that playground equipment might need some work, get repairs done, clean up the flower beds!
community center -- there are always a million things to do at the center to help out.
memorial library -- help our team of librarians with whatever they need.
new haven daycare -- visit the youngest kids and volunteer to help with their needs!
ruff around park -- do a little tidying and cleaning up and play with puppies!
school district -- help out with various tasks that need done around the elementary, middle or high school.
animal sanctuary -- help our workers with the animals that need them the most.
harmony ranch -- spend time embracing your inner cowboy… or cleaning out some stalls!
lake malory -- keeping our lake clean and pristine is a big goal for this year… go ahead and help out!
paradise gardens -- help take care of the many, many plants in our own botanical garden, and learn something along the way.
state park -- there's always something to do around the state park to help out!
And! If you hop under the cut right now, you will find the pair-offs that you're looking for. A thread must be started sometime during the duration of the event with your partner. Check it out.
A thread must be started between April 22nd and April 28th of some character combination planting a tree, anywhere in Merrock! The thread does not need to be completed during that time frame -- you can continue writing it after the event has ended, but we do ask that you guys please not just drop the thread, or only do one or two replies before giving up. Plant your tree! If a player plays multiple characters, you are welcome to choose any pairing, but try to make it unique (in other words, if you've written before, avoid that pairing).
If you are assigned to someone who is inactive, or does not reply to you within a couple of days, please reach out to the admin team. We'll work with you!
Steph (Katherine, Thalia) & Nani (Diana)
Grace (Rosalie) & Myr (Amanda)
Mags (Cassidy) & Nikki (Ember)
Chayya (Marlow) & Anna (Sylvia, Reyna, Jayla, Alec, Wes, Cori, Cathy, Espie)
Frankie (Deacon, Ravi) & Erin (Lara, Mandy, Bryan, Jamie, Vince, Mekelah, Joella, Alice)
Jen (Tommy) & Nessa (Mateo, Zoey, Chloe, Yesenia, Libby, Xander, Jennifer)
Maria (Vitus) & Bri (Cordelia, Eliza, Fallon, Spencer, Emeline, Marquis, Vivienne, Ramsey)
MOD NOTE: as you may notice, admin Katie and admin Lindsey are not on the list. The reason for this is that we know things happen: players need to take a hiatus, someone goes inactive, emergencies crop up, life happens sometimes! We are on stand-by to step in and replace anyone who can not participate. With both of us playing eight characters, there's a very good chance we have not written with you in one way or another, and we are happy to step up and help! But we will also be doing plot/thread calls and/or open starters, so we will be just as involved as you, promise! xx

What: Volunteer Week
Where: Aquatic Conservatory
Who: Jamie Mariadaga-Evans & @libbystcwart
Jamie had always liked going to nature and parks. One thing he rarely got to do was be around sea creatures. Maybe the occasional field trip Monterey when he was a kid. So it would be fun to just hang around there and maybe learn a new thing or two. "Isn't this guy the cutest?" he grinned at the person next to him, holding a hermit crab in the palm of his hand.

Went to Volunteer Park Conservatory with friends last weekend! So many things were in flower! It’s one of my favorite places in Seattle.

the greatest thing to ever happen to me was while volunteering at the chocolate festival at the garfield park conservatory and helping this guy from Bloomer’s Chocolate pack up, and he had 2 10-pound chocolate bars that he had had out on display. As a thank you he gave my family one of them and we had that shit for a YEAR. We had a CHISEL and a HAMMER sitting next to it on a cutting board for a YEAR
what i miss most about being a chocolatier (besides the honor of gayest job title imaginable) is we had these massive bars of chocolate for tempering that were 10lbs and we had to break them into smaller chunks. by using a sledgehammer of course. i LIVED for that shit
