I am still amazed by the amazing people that I meet here :)It was a great pleasure reading your post @becominghuman!
One proposal that you might find helpful. There are communities in HIVE and this makes it easier for people that have the same interests to meet each other, like The Herbal Hive. People here tend to use the communities more instead of hashtags :) This means you write your post IN a community.
In case you want to try (and I highly recommend it) I will tell you some of my favorites. Apart from the Herbal one, that is the smallest community but the sweetest, I think you will like HiveGarden, maybe ecoTrain and Abundancetribe. There are many more, I still haven't discovered them all. There is a #gardenjournal challenge running now in Hive Garden, which is monthly and I would like invite you, but I am going to write mine tomorrow and the deadline is also tomorrow, haha! So if you want to take part, please this is my invitation! You just register in the community and follow the guidelines that each one might have. Here is the link to the challenge https://peakd.com/hive-140635/@riverflows/time-to-share-your-gardens-in-march
Let me know if you need help!!! xxx
