   Yesterday I helped volunteer at a local disabilities org to help clear out "weeds", primarily Canadian thistle, burdock, smartweed, and mock strawberry. The land wasn't used last season and became very dry. Instead they prioritized raised beds. They plan to weed wack, till, then add a cover crop for the winter. I ask them about their practices: they said right now they don't have that much permaculture implementation because they are focusing on access needs before rushing into adopting regenerative practices randomly. It reminds me of Aimi Hamraie's work. I had a nice time sharing with the other volunteers some of my knowledge of the plants we were encountering, their uses, and considerations to make when removing them.
