Made my day: a travelling friend (painted turtle) stumbled upon my dads doorstep this morning. I sent them on their merry way back towards the river.

Taking my last steps on the McFadden family farm - a place that has filled my life with so much joy, love, learning, and chicken eggs.

(Also took these drone photos as a gift for my grandpa a few years ago and they have become so important to me)

What is my favourite part of studying agrifood system sustainability? You didn’t ask - but it’s justifying my expensive and delicious coffee purchases to my partner.

Leave Twitter just because it’s fallen into disrepair under terrible leadership? Babe, I’m in academia.

My obsession with this stout roast is reaching new levels and so is my heart rate as I demolish my fourth cup 😋

[Justina WM (she/her) @botanyandbeans]

[Justina WM (she/her) @botanyandbeans]
