Today’s the big day! Our SeedMoney campaign will launch at noon Eastern Time. Please support our Healing Garden. Thanks!

Leave the Leaves! If you can instead of bagging up your leaves this year consider moving them into beds, a corner of your garden or under trees. Leaves act as a free, eco-friendly fertilizer adding nitrogen and amending the soil for greener lawns in the spring.

Update on Tiny Forest project - Excavation of 20 X 20 plot with added soil amendments (Top soil, leaf compost and Espoma biotone) and first tree planting Thursday 11/14. Second planting scheduled for early spring. Total # trees/ shrubs - 120. #landstewardship
