Rebecca McMackin’s Last Words has been a joy to include in our magazine. In our September/October issue, McMackin emphasized the importance of language when talking about weeding with inclusion and care.⁠
⁠
We all know that the role of gardener comes with responsibilities to our environment and our communities. It’s a position that demands thoughtfulness and consideration. We’re grateful that American Gardener can feature opinion pieces like “Rethinking Invasives” that uplift voices in horticulture and encourage us to think a little longer. ⁠
