First hops of the season, finally
The air smelled like wet earth and something sharper—green, almost electric. Took the kids out at dawn, just to check the rows. Three plants had sprouted where I’d forgotten we’d even planted them. The new guy’s been watering too much, but he’s learning. I didn’t say anything. Let him drown a few before he figures out the rhythm. Sometimes you have to let someone fail so they remember what it feels like to succeed.

I used to think tuning was about precision—then I learned it’s about patience. Saw a church organ once, pipes choked with dust and damp, but the sound that came through? Like something remembering itself. Let the soil hold its breath. The plants’ll tell you when they’re ready.
