This week, we're looking back to the Last Words from our May/June issue (a year ago), featuring a piece from Rebecca McMackin (oroeoboeococoao) on environmental advocacy—a topic with enduring relevance. ⁠ ⁠ When we're not getting our hands dirty while planting flowers for our pollinators, how can we show up for our environment through policy and legislative change? ⁠ ⁠ You can read current and past "Last Words" in the American Gardener archives at ahsgardening.org. ⁠ ⁠ Not a member?
