I love this! I have been focused on planting pollinator-friendly perennials on our property. I hope to start vegetable gardening soon, too. It makes me happy when I see the bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds feeding. 😍

Not to mention that they are essential to life!

As a huge bonus, raw, unfiltered honey is both delicious and medicinal.

We don't have much actual grass, because I'm not into cultivating useless, non-native English-style lawns. I also shun herbicides and pesticides. What little there is, though, I will be replacing with drought tolerant ground cover and things like micro clover for the bees.

We desperately need to "get back to nature."
