Nesting for the Holidays?



Are you flying the coop or nesting nearby for the holidays? Wherever you go, have a wonderful time. And as John Burroughs reminds us, “If I were to name the three most precious resources of life, I should say books, friends, and nature; and the greatest of these, at least the most constant and always at hand, is nature.”

Today’s garden thought – create natural habitats for the birds. You’ll be pleasantly surprised how many birds visit your garden, even during the cold, winter months. Some may decide to even stay!

About Me

My Photo
My gardening influence starts with my Italian grandmother and mother. Their passion for gardening and fresh food has led me to my love for the earth. My Dad taught me my appreciation for nature and my border collies keep me grounded, staying in contact with it daily, whether I want to or not. My husband, Greg's passion for agriculture, horticulture, naturalistic landscape designs and travel have kept us busy in our time together. It's hard to work with and live with your husband but we manage to do it and still find laughter. I think it is because we love food, gardening and nature.
