Living it!
2022 we partnered with the Butterfly Pavilion Pollinator Services to help us remove our grass and create a pollinator garden. We are excited to see what pollinators start to move in. All the plants were carefully selected for our dry climate, clay soil, year round blooms and low water requirement. These native plants will help attract and give refuge to native pollinators (and Fairies!)
Thriving in 2023!
Our pollinator garden has flourished. We have noticed many more native pollinators moving in as well as several families of fairies. We have dramatically cut our outdoor water usage and have made a new area for the neighborhood kids to explore. We are excited to continue our journey of native plants and fostering hibernating pollinators.
