Jerry Baker "MASTER GARDENER" on TWCh proAD[promo-ad]. though posted w/o permission i hope it is left on as an example of how to flow with nature, maybe a kid might see this for the first time and think.

As a child my grandpa told me to spank or slightly tug on trees [continue in comments]

janitors/maintenance crews locker/hangout room. So what does this have to do with nature, well we where going to be the first to create in a city environment a plant lot, the first in the country ~1973 between 32nd & 33rd st on the west side of that 3rd ave...there we where 3 kids several newspaper writers/photographers a few tv reporters...go forward 2weeks and as i went to school i noticed the thin lot was being excavated i asked a construction worker he we are building a mcdonalds, i though huh??? went to school, asked the teacher questions she was saddened then a few months later another wider lot on lexington ave officially became the first in a city environment man made "plant lot" which is better than nothing but learned a lesson on how $$$ talks people/plants walk.

one of my Proverbs/maxims from elementry school : currency, sad how a non-living thing manages to RULE over the living...

As a child my grandpa told me to spank or slightly tug on trees that get little activity[meaning hidden from wind/animal activity/natural actions] this tugging/spanking he said helped the tree grow stronger, Well as i look back at all the trees i would tug at here in nyc for decades they all are sooo healthy/big/bright spring blossoms [have the most wild birds in nyc not in park areas as wetlands in kings county[Brooklyn] or central park i see red/orange feathered birds, falcons resting on my 10th floor window, seagulls trying but too small of a widow sill
