On Friday, lines of poetry by Jan H. de Groot were added to the portrait of John Frost on the eponymous bridge in #Arnhem. The old bronze plaque had been stolen this spring and replaced with a portrait of John Frost by a spontaneous campaign by the television program #EvenTotHier. Everyone was happy about this, but De Groot's poem was now missing from the monument, as Ada de Groot (daughter of) rightly pointed out to the municipality. The municipality's Heritage department commissioned me to come up with a solution. I advocated for a different location for the poem: on the brick piers on either side of the monument.
The monument is complete again. And has now been given a makeover. Because this message remains important to reflect on.
Proud of the result. Completely "Made in Arnhem." Thanks for the commission, Bob Roelofs, Pieter Polman, and Jeroen van Gaalen. And for the fantastic collaboration with Steven Frijlink. #Questa font by Martin Majoor and Jos Buivenga. Carving by De Smidse Metaal.

Ze kwamen net weer over zoals elk jaar. Dan maken ze een rondje Zelhem om vervolgens terug te vliegen naar de Ginkelse Heide bij Ede. Het blijft een immens machtig gezicht om zo'n Hercules op 300 meter boven je huis te zien vliegen. Ze vliegen daar ter herinnering aan operatie Market Garden, de slag die 81 jaar geleden plaats gevonden en die velen het leven gekost.
Er kwamen net een paar Antifa vliegtuigen over
I made a new design for the poem at the #JohnFrostBridge in #Arnhem. Proud to contribute to an important chapter in the #history of our city.

It was a great plan:
- Plant lots of gherkin plants.
- Harvest early.
- Have loads of pickled cornichons.
Reality:
- Do not get around harvesting the gherkins.
- End up with 25+ kg of gherkins of up to a pound each.
- Search for huge glasses.
- Pickle and ferment them anyway.
Variety: Vorgebirgstrauben

PS: Luckily the "Russian picklings" didn't do well this year and "Vert petit de Paris" was a mislabled mini cucumber...
Non-US #garden, #MarketGarden curiosity: what seed starting tray size is standard where you are? I know of the US “1020” standard and the Japanese slightly different size. How many standards are there?

Two wheel tractor questions -- Anyone have experience comparing the turning radius, the headland needs generally, between the Tilmor Ox and the BCS walk-behinds?
other comparisons also useful
Fermented Friday: 2025 Winking Lizard Beer Tour 20 – Market Garden Progress Pilsner (151)
Staying with the Cleveland theme, this Pilsner is incredibly light and dry, as well as easy to drink.
What's a good use for cobbles? I'm going to be picking rounded cobbles out of vegetable fields. 6cm to 20cm, which make an uncomfortable path. Glacial till, so they are not workable, they have no flat shear planes (and few weak ones).
They don't even pile well, and piles are a weed reservoir & hard to hoe, anyway.
Gabions to make decorative gateposts? Held together with a minimum of concrete for whenever the gabion cages fail? Sinkaway?

#Burnsville #Minnesota to pilot ‘#FoodForest’ at #CivicCenterPark
By Christine Schuster, February 7, 2025
"An old hockey rink in Burnsville will soon be transformed into an educational #garden under a new citywide initiative to implement #sustainable land practices and build long-term solutions to health inequities.
"The #MarketGarden, where student interns will help grow produce for local nonprofit, is one of several new programs being launched this summer under the 'Grow Burnsville' initiative.
"The City of Burnsville’s sustainability pitch won first place at this year’s Childhood Obesity Prevention and #EnvironmentalSustainability Awards held by the United States Conference of Mayors and the American Beverage Foundation for a Healthy America.
"The $125,000 prize money set 'Grow Burnsville' into motion.
"'It’s just thrilling,' said Sue Bast, the city’s environmental specialist and sustainability coordinator.
"A 'food forest' planted at Civic Center Park this spring is one of Grow Burnsville’s pilot projects, Bast said.
"Once it’s matured, the food forest will be an open food resource to anyone looking for free access to fruits and other edible plants. Using the principals of #permaculture, no chemical #pesticides or #fertilizers will be used in maintaining the forest, according to Bast.
"David Woods, the conservation program director with Urban Roots, said Burnsville’s food forest is designed to be low-maintenance.
"The city enlisted #UrbanRoots, a St. Paul-based nonprofit, to help with the design and implementation of #GrowBurnsville initiatives.
"The food forest will take 3-5 years to fully develop, according to Woods. The forest includes around 40 different plantings, such as apple, pear and plum trees, herbs and a variety of native shrubs with edible berries or nuts.
"'I’m hoping the successes that’ll come from the Burnsville project will help promote it elsewhere,' Woods said.
"'We’re going to see how this works,' Bast said. 'It could possibly be a direction we want to go with some public land that is underused.'"
