When my three-year project Pondering with Pines officially ended at the end of the year I was already fairly sure that junipers would be my next companions, and I started a small tumblr-blog called Joining Junipers. I’m not going to form any other separate blog for junipers, but I did create a media archive with the same name on the RC platform, Joining Junipers. Although this is not a formal project I will gather material about my encounters with junipers there. I’ve already chosen three junipers to have conversations with, two in Helsinki and one in Stockholm. With the juniper in Stockholm I speak Swedish, with the Juniper on Harakka Island Finnish and with the one in Suomenlinna English, in a series called With the Juniper in Suomenlinna. The project as a whole is called Joining Junipers, because Joining the Junipers would assumably mean linking together junipers rather than me joining them.
