Scenes from our juneberry harvest on Nice Roots Farm last month! Did you know that Juneberries are an excellent source of iron – each serving provides about 23% RDA for iron! That’s almsot twice as much iron as blueberries 🫐🤯
The fruit is best eaten fresh, but can be frozen 😋

Appalling failure to steward public welfare 😔💧
Replying to @ajplus
The EPA warned Mississippi in 2020 of "imminent" dangers for people drinking Jackson's tap water.
The 80% Black city has sought repairs since the 1940s.
Governor Reeves repeatedly refused requests for funding and the state only approved 6% of requested repair funds last year.

These newlyweds toasted to their new marriage with Philly tap.🥂PWD caught them during the Water Bar at City Hall today. We poured local tap water, which meets/exceeds state + federal quality standards➡️water.phila.gov/quality 💧
We'll be at City Hall again Aug. 24 + 31 at 12pm!
If it's a freely accessible 'resource,' we can certainly help database it.
Pools, after all, are a special kind of 'water tap' 💧😎

I shall start collecting them by hand
Here's Marian Anderson
maybe these could live up on @PHLASKecosystem in the mid term?
You'll see the PHLASK team in some of these photos! 😁 Thanks to #IndyHall and #CodeforPhilly for the triumphant return of (in-person) Hack Nights

Looks like the taps are opening up again 😃
Hopefully @PhillyH2O will be turning it on soon.
Still closed 🤷♂️🤦♂️
Replying to @aDCUfaninPhilly @DPearsonPHL
We were told that @PhillyH2O is actually responsible for maintaining these 4 fountains in Fairmount Park. They may only be turned on seasonally, but were off for some period during COVID. @PhilaParkandRec would likely know about the others.

A proposal in City Council would replace every drinking fountain in every public school with a hydration station that filters out lead. Lawmakers should not hesitate to pass it, writes The Inquirer Editorial Board. trib.al/m5UtqVb
Whoa, @AMCTheatres at @FashionDistPHL engages in some pretty bad water profiteering 🏴☠️💧
Have to pay ~$6 for a bottle of water or a fountain cup. No courtesy cups provided.

We’re at Penrose Recreation Center celebrating the unveiling of one of our two “Drink More Tap” murals with @muralarts and @PhilaParkandRec! 🎶💧🎨 #drinktapphl
We've been a little quiet recently, but we're working diligently to improve the interface functionality with the introduction of the Crowdsourcing Form. The next version will also have a new PHLaskable resource: food foraging 🌳 - stay tuned 😃
