Welcome back to another edition of the Lotus Garden. It's certainly getting busy in the homesteading community as things warm up in the northern hemisphere. It's exciting to welcome some newcomers to the fold too.

Things happening in the community.

@riverflows has wrapped up this week's garden journal challenge. I think she had a great time reading through all the entries.

In the @naturalmedicine community we have @justinparke hosting the plant power cooking challenge.

If cooking isn't your thing, then perhaps you'd prefer the @naturalmedicine spirituality challenge instead.

And finally, this week's @ecotrain question of the week is all about communication.

Welcoming Newcomers

It's always exciting to welcome newcomers and @alexanderfarm is no exception. I highly recommend a visit to their page, as they have hit the ground running with some great content.

Some highlights of the week

@newparadigmff is introducing and implementing a token and exchange concept to work in the real world. If I've got this right, it's a way to barter and exchange for goods between people and communities for food and even shelter. Read their introduction and the linked concept to find out more.

It's lovely to see @canadianrenegade back on Hive. They've been growing apple trees from seed in their basement. Find out what types they've chosen and why. After all, you can't guarantee a certain apple type when grown from seed.

Have you ever wondered how they make those living walls. Well here's @ammonite to show us how with a living walls workshop.

@carolynstahl brings us a flavoursome barbecue spiced tofu and spinach salad.
