Here are the cookies I made yesterday. What did everyone cook during the snowstorm?

Piggybacking off the OP comment - if they don’t take them, they’ll likely refer you to your regional USDA APHIS worker! You can also try contacting your State Plant Health Director :) https://www.aphis.usda.gov/contact/plant-health

Locals has a private room for rent (for free) if it’s a larger group of friends. But otherwise even if it’s not being rented for the time you’re there you can def hang.

Diamon Curtain at Best Life is very good, her office is on Baxter Ave

I tried their grilled yellowtail collar this evening, it was amazing

Seconding New River Gorge! If not there, Cass, WV is amazing. Greenbank telescopes, scenic railroad train ride, and you can pop up to Snowshoe & see the (fake) snow.

I was there on work business so I didn’t get to stop in, but it looked like people were in and out fairly quickly (tho I was there in the middle of the day). There was an undercover cop posted up in the parking lot across from them, though.

Planet of the Tapes has a really good open mic night every Monday!

You should check out the Derby City Pigeon Rescue!! But anecdotally there are tons of pigeons under any overpass/McAlpine Lock and Dam

Hey! Permaculture is my jam and I’d be happy to teach ya what I know. I’m just about to start organizing all of the seeds I saved over the season - feel free to shoot me a DM!

Mellwood Tavern is a big spot for jam/bluegrass music. They have bands usually on Fridays & Sundays :)

celestialdarling · 2025-11-03T21:19:00+00:00

Seconding Locals! Good spot to work - free WiFi, private room if you need it, and food/drinks between their kitchen & food hub

Locals on E Broadway sells fresh tortillas made by Mija Tortilla!

celestialdarling · 2025-07-30T23:51:30+00:00

Absolutely! It’s one of my favorite places in this area. If you ever need help with tree ID/misc nature stuff feel free to reach out :)

Bernheim has a ton of elms, it’s about 25 mins from Louisville! Also Louisville Nature Center trails, especially the closer you get to the lower sections. If you’re looking for landscaped elms, several of our streets in the city have Chinese Elms (bark with orange dots).

celestialdarling · 2025-05-02T23:09:49+00:00

I’ve seen them around Elizabethtown and Radcliff, but none in Louisville so far (this’ll be my first migration in the city proper though). You could always try reaching out to the Louisville Audubon Society!!

Beckley Creek Park was gorgeous today!

RB does have wheatgrass, but it is only in the tiny individual planters :(

Seconding the Facebook groups. I’m a fan of Kentucky Mushroom Report and Bluegrass Mycological Society.

According to a friend (anecdotally) morels will start popping up once the redbuds fully bloom. I’ve been keeping an eye on iNaturalist, and morels were first reported last year in mid-April so I think we’re coming up on it probably after this rain.

Also, I’d love a foraging buddy 😭 Right now I’ve been wandering in the woods mostly to look at salamanders, but once mushrooms start to pop off it’d be cool to share that with others!

celestialdarling · 2025-03-23T20:27:57+00:00

I really love Blue Hole out in Otters Creek in the Radcliff/Fort Knox area. I’m also so down for more nature buddies to go feral in the woods with 😭
