One of the easiest ways to practice succession planting is simply to keep on seeding. 🌱🌱🌱 This technique works best with quick-growing vegetables, such as lettuce, arugula, radishes, and bush beans, which can be planted every few weeks.
Continual sowing will produce a staggered harvest — that is, your whole crop won’t be ready at the same time. After all, who needs to have a whole packet of radish seeds mature at once? For a family of four, 👨‍👨‍👧‍👦it makes more sense to sow about 20 radish seeds every two weeks. 💚🌿👍🏾

When I am among the trees,
especially the willows and the honey locust,
equally the beech, the oaks and the pines,
they give off such hints of gladness.
I would almost say that they save me, and daily.

I am so distant from the hope of myself,
in which I have goodness, and discernment,
and never hurry through the world
but walk slowly, and bow often.

Around me the trees stir in their leaves
and call out, “Stay awhile.”
The light flows from their branches.

And they call again, “It’s simple,” they say,
“and you too have come
into the world to do this, to go easy, to be filled
with light, and to shine.”

-- Mary Oliver (1935-2019)
