normalize fear of invasive species
Normalize not calling everything invasive without mentioning which country you’re in. People in Europe are pulling out “English ivy” because some idiot on Reddit told them "it’s invasive’.

Does social anxiety count? I’m doing my part.
I’m very lucky, we still have some native pollinators here. Not like. Many. But some!
Man, fuck wild parsnip.
We’re terrified of a Russian bush

Garlic mustard…? 🤔
That sounds awesome.
Perhaps culinary.

Is it just a type of mustard plant or is it a garlic and mustard sauce/mix?
Its a plant, but I dont know if its a true mustard
