I do all the things you've listed and have tried to educate my neighborhood but sadly have not made much progress. I have given tours of my garden to various groups to inspire change and that has been effective because these are folks who are open to learning and interested in making a difference (unlike my neighbors).

An excellent list, to be sure.<br /><br />Thankfully a new Wild Ones chapter popped up in Western North Carolina recently. I learned about it via a search, after a great talk by a Wild Ones board member in the OSU Bee Lab series of presentations. I was on a lovely Zoom membership meeting this evening. Nice. It's about connection, too, among all the various folks who are trying to do the right thing stewarding their landscapes.Lisa Wagnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08546271182217310594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3093185160483906357.post-52855433520444019782022-01-27T09:34:32.967-06:002022-01-27T09:34:32.967-06:00That's super cool, Heidi.That's super cool, Heidi. <br />Gailhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16194325535496408116noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3093185160483906357.post-11031558120164272782022-01-27T07:41:40.530-06:002022-01-27T07:41:40.530-06:00Challenge Accepted!!

Also, expansions of the suburbs into previously wild areas. It's hard to watch. I will try to post more often on Wildflower Wednesdays this year, and I'll continue to post about the other challenges you mention, too. Happy 2022. :)Beth at PlantPostingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10473637655960119672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3093185160483906357.post-28101586807043424892022-01-26T17:05:53.876-06:002022-01-26T17:05:53.876-06:00Well done, Gail!

I don't remember if you suggested waiting until the plants are up a bit in the spring before cutting back the previous year's growth, and to leave I am thinking a couple feet of the stems for bees to nest in. I see my blog that I have neglected is still on your list, but I was given a link to start a blog, as if I don't have one. I'll have to click on it and see where it takes me. I do think it has been spammed somehow over the years.Corner Gardener Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10631500918579405664noreply@blogger.com
