About this listen

Balsam fir is such an iconic north woods tree that I just LOVE. It has a tidy form and an invigorating flavor that help jolt me out of winter blahs. You can see this and other trees by checking out #mitigoog on Instagram, or for just balsam fir, try out #zhingob.

This episode was recorded almost a month ago and I just got off-track with posting when my laptop got wrecked. Not because I couldn't post, because technically I 100% could. I was just discouraged - AND distracted with a new obsession, learning how to braid rag rugs. So I think I make some reference to it being January, oh well. I'm just going to do a blitz of mini episodes and catch up on the season I had planned out.

I would love to hear from you! You can use the contact form on my website or record me a voice message at anchor.fm/marisa-lee
