There are a lot of things that the marigold society is. Guerilla phenology. Traditional botany. Psuedoscience. Art. Seed preservation. Sanctuary. A memory. A form of public prayer. A jungian INFJ Ni Ti Loop. A way to get outside and move your body. A socialist gardening club. Over 700 weirdos connected by an invisible thread that goes all around the globe made of nothing but delicate seed. A way to look at a map differently. A way to question reality. A way to befriend a ghost. Antiproductivity farming. Free lunch theory. Neoliberal’s nightmare. Adoration of the marigold as a discursive frame to access a deep(er) environmental justice, ecology, feminism, freedom. A place for babies and the elderly to get a whiff of glory at any station.
