After yesterday’s 90*s today’s 40*s feel very cold to me. So after some early morning garden work I’m spending this cold snap indoors. I’m working on learning how to do better videography to make better online plant walk videos for my Skool courses.
Learning videography
There’s more to videograpy than just pressing the record button. Or, maybe if I was better at actually making videos then that would be the bulk of the work.
But for me, the most time-consuming part is the editing. I’ve also been working on learning how to make highlight reels. Here’s an under 30 second highlight reel I just made:
The interesting plants I saw from one vantage point
These aren’t the ones from my course, but are some others I saw after I’d finished with that video.
I do plant walks all the time for myself and don’t always remember to hit record when I’m doing them. There’s an old hollow maple tree down by the creek. It’s perched on a short mossy bluff that looks like a fairy landscape. These plants were all right there around the maple among the moss.
Online plant walk at Skool
If you want to take my course, you can find it at skool.com/nature-connection. Once you join the community, the courses are all under the Classroom tab. The online plant walk course is $30 which includes all of them. I’ll make new videos of the various things we look at throughout the year to show it as it grows. All of those go into the same course. It just updates by adding new material as I get it.
Gardening Time?
Most of the days lately if sure has felt like it. But this morning it was 36*, and night time temps have still been too low for germinating my peppers and tomatoes. Still, I have some started indoors but the floor temps in the house have been too cold, too.
However, we have a greenhouse under construction soon and at least next year I’ll be able to get seeds started sooner. In the meantime, I’ve been cleaning beds and getting them ready to plant. And I did already plant onions and put some carrot, lettuce, and bush bean seeds in the ground.
