If you're reading these show notes and/or listening to this podcast, you've made it through 2020 and to today. I know it's been hard and I know things look bleak sometimes, but making it through this year has proven you can do hard things. Keep striving and keep going. I love all you nerds, and can't wait to talk plants with you again next week!
