Co-Creating a Better World
In the Spring of 2021 I had purchased three apple trees (1 McIntosh, 1 State Fair, and 1 Cortland), and two hazelnut bushes/trees to plant on our property. This would be the first trees, and shrubs that I would plant on our new property, and the beginnings of my forest garden! 😀 Up until then…
It’s been a while since I have made any blog posts. I will try to change that. 🙂 Last Spring I started out pretty strong as usual with way too many plans, and big ambitions. At the time, little did I know that the coming Summers extremely hot weather would bring a pause to everything.…
I am happy to announce that I am now a square foot gardening certified instructor! ? After completing all the class work, passing all the exams, building, growing, and documenting my own square foot garden. I have successfully fulfilled all of the Square Foot Gardening Foundations requirements, and am now officially a square foot gardening…
For those of you that know me, and read my posts. You know that I try to make everyday Earth Day! On this day though, it is a special day of celebration, and making promises. To make it a happier, healthier, and greener planet for generations to come. Make every day Earth Day! 🙂

Well, maybe not late but just in time! I usually start planting around Mothers Day, but this year I took on way to many projects. I was beginning to think that I wouldn’t have time for a vegetable garden this year. But as luck would have it, I found the time on the very same…
One of my favorite things about Spring is watching everything come back to life! From the very first violets reminding us that everything isn’t just winters white or summers green, but also every color in between. To the Bleeding Hearts that remind us of how much we love the natural world. And we cannot forget…
After many days of hard work and waiting on the weather, I am happy to announce that the first segment of the main trail is now complete! In case you missed it! I wrote a blog article about Scouting, and Planning The Main Trail a couple weeks ago. It might be a good idea to…
The Great Greening has begun! Well, at least it has here in Southeastern Wisconsin. I don’t know if you have noticed, but I certainly have. I awoke the other day to light definitive swaths of green scattered across the landscape. It was such a welcoming sight to see! Little green leaves popping out of every…
