Around the Web with Ecosystem Gardening

Butterflies in the wildlife garden

It’s been a busy week for Ecosystem Gardening, and I’m thrilled to see interest growing in gardening for wildlife, native plants, and sustainable landscaping.

First, my buddy Scott Artis at JournOwl wrote about how Ecosystem Gardening had inspired him to create a habitat garden as a wildlife corridor. His garden is beautiful!

I was asked to guest host #gardenchat, a live twitter chat that happens every Monday night at 9pm Eastern. The topic that night was native plants, and boy did they ask some great questions!

Bethe Almeras, the genius behind the Grass Stain Guru, and proponent of the #playoutdoors movement, used a post of mine called Sharing the Wonders of Nature with Kids in Your Ecosystem Garden. Bethe is an amazing advocate for getting kids outside and learning about nature!

Rob Jones has written a very thought-provoking post called 10 Ways to G0 Green in Your Garden, which is a really good read. He cites Ecosystem Gardening when he talks about choosing the best plants for your garden: find out which plants are native to your immediate area. Thanks Rob!

And Alison Kerr used a post of mine to talk about the reasons why our gardens are so important for wildlife at her site, Loving Natures Garden.

All in all a very busy, satisfying, and successful week!
