This is why we grow and plant lots of Fragaria virginiana!

Stop mowing. Start snacking.

Wild strawberry (Fragaria virginiana) is the native groundcover grass wishes it could be.

It:

Handles foot traffic

Stays green without chemicals

Produces white spring flowers for bees

Gives you free, edible fruit

Spreads gently instead of needing constant mowing

And yes — you can walk on it.

Why wild strawberries beat grass:

No weekly mowing

No fertilizer or herbicides

Supports pollinators

Feeds people and wildlife

Grass feeds nothing.
Wild strawberries feed everyone.

So ask yourself honestly:
Why are we still planting lawns?

The tweet highlighting tax breaks for CEOs’ private jets compared to a call for tax breaks for people who replace their lawns with native wildflowers highlights a critical issue in today’s society: priorities. 🌿 The government supports corporations with tax breaks for luxuries, yet individuals who make efforts to help the environment often receive no such support. 🌱

Native wildflowers are not just aesthetically pleasing—they support pollinators like bees and butterflies, which are crucial to the ecosystem. 🦋 Wildflowers improve biodiversity, provide food and shelter for local wildlife, and help restore natural habitats that have been destroyed. By encouraging people to plant them, we can make a significant impact on preserving biodiversity.

Let’s advocate for policy changes that support sustainable practices like planting native wildflowers and moving away from chemically treated lawns. 🌼 People who choose to help the environment should be rewarded, not ignored. 🌍

This is one example of critical research that’s being cut. Fungi are one of the brighter prospects we have for slowing ecosystem destruction.

These fungi boost plant growth and restore depleted ecosystems, but federal funding for a library housing them has been cut – and it may be forced to close
