I’ve transformed most of my 1 acre yard from lawn to native plant gardens. Native plants support biodiversity!

    Very much so, yes! We’ve removed most of the invasives from our property and the majority of plants we grow are native to our bioregion. Last year we grew a few hundred black chokeberries (Aronia melanocarpa) in an air prune box, and practiced some assisted migration growing Shepherdia canadensis in another. This year we’re growing Carolina Allspice (Calycanthus floridus), Northern Bay (Myrica pensylvanica), and a few varieties of Viburnum to boot!
