thriving on the roof
Our wood shed is almost thirty years old and its roof has never been re-shingled. This summer, perhaps it is trying to communicate with us.
the right amount of soil, the right amount of sun
Just above the wood shed is a white pine. Each year it sheds some of its needles and these land on the roof. Over the years, they have gradually built up, forming a kind of compost. This year, a dusting of seeds found hold, sprouted and are thriving! The roof is still keeping the contents of the wood shed dry, although we expect a vigorous root to break through any time.
Sometimes, we find a space to grow and thrive where it is least expected.

Jeesh, I can’t see the forest through the trees! Are you attempting pioneer life with a pseudo sod roof on your shed?
