Writing and digging in the dirt are my passions. I want to restore my little piece of the world using native flora. I also want to share my journey with you.
I love violets. Common blue violets (Viola sororia) are popping up along all the trails in the nature park. These flowers bring back happy memories.

Spring is Springing
April is Native Plant Month! Celebrate it by planting native trees, shrubs, perennials, vines, and grasses. Your state’s Native Plant Society can help you select plants native to your area.

Our thoughts are now turned towards Christmas. Even if you don’t celebrate the holiday, I hope you take a few minutes to do something nice for a loved one, someone in need, a pet, or even a bug. gretaburroughs.substack.com/p/legendary-...

We Are Not Alone
Unfortunately, greed, selfishness, and destruction have become a way of life in our country.

Autumn is the best time to work outside in the garden. Just because the weather is getting cooler doesn’t mean it’s time to put up the trowel and vegetate inside the house. Goodness, no! #gardening #conservation #nativeplants #nature

Cooler Weather Shouldn’t Stop Anyone From Gardening!
Here's another repost of an article from my "Through the Lens of a Nature Lover" archive. Hope it motivates you to get outside and get your hands dirty!
