    Happy Earth Day! Today I learned more about overwintering pollinators in my garden. It's important to leave leaves on the ground in the fall, but also to have a spot of bare soil.

      I am too. Good luck with the tree. We're planning to add a Crimson Maple later this year. They're beautiful!

    I'm lucky to live in an area I think is beautiful, and I love to be outdoors enjoying it, whatever the weather. I want to protect this beauty, so stewardship of our lands, protecting native species and minimizing human impact seems like second nature. I always learn during this event, about myself and about things I can do.
