Let the frequency of your joy vibrate with the frequency of spring

Fiann Ó Nualláin is on a bit of rant for April Fool’s Day — the beginning of the gardener’s year proper.

Let the frequency of your joy vibrate with the frequency of spring

I’m more of a “white rabbit, white rabbit, white rabbit” guy than an April Fool’s prankster, (saying the words out loud on the first day of the month is supposed to bring good luck), but if you are a frequent visitor to this page, then you’ll know that I love to explore, not just gardening traditions but occasionally non-gardening traditions to explore a lesson or potential insight for fellow gardeners and myself. In this instance, it may just be: “don’t be fooled”.

The origin of the April Fool’s concept is somewhat obscured by alternate facts.
