Why do you garden?

Every day I have a new answer to this question. That's because every time I go out to look at, and work in the garden, I see something I haven't seen before. A new wildlife visitor (or pest), a budding bush, or a fully opened flower with a sweet fragrance that makes me linger.

I consider myself extremely fortunate that my growing-up family gardened, and we gardened BIG! I actually thought everyone did. And then I went to college. I learned that most don't have the plant intuitiveness that I do, that I was taught by my parents.

I was shown very young how to look at things, to look at them closely. That trait has never escaped me. I want to share everything I see and experience in the gardens I visit and work in. I want you to see what I see, to save you time, money & frustration! So you can experience beauty and abundance, and create the habitat that you Love!!

So, from foodscapes to frogs, here is some information, some inspiration and a whole lot of beauty! I invite you to comment, participate and question Everything, So we can learn and grow together!

It's Spring!!
How do I know? The sound of frogs!
For several years I have worked with the Skagit Land Trust in Skagit County Washington, doing surveys for frog eggs in the early spring. We monitor the same wetlands every year to see the changes in the native and invasive species, both plant and animal. This has greatly increased my awareness of our Northwest environment, and has helped me in my work and passion of helping to create the places where we ALL love to live!
