Why it’s important to garden sustainably
As kids, do you remember spotting bugs splattered on car windows during those endless road trips? It's a sight that's become rarer now, thanks to the widespread use of pesticides, the relentless march of development, and desire for perfectly manicured lawns. It's a problem with deep implications for our environment, especially for the vital role insects play in it.
This is where gardens step in as crucial sanctuaries for these tiny but crucial creatures. By steering clear of harmful chemicals and opting for native plants, we can create spaces that are not only welcoming to bees, butterflies, and caterpillars, but also contribute to the broader ecosystem. Making these thoughtful choices can cultivate thriving gardens that breathe life back into our surroundings without inadvertently harming the environment.
While the impact of a single garden may seem small, the collective effort of many can create a meaningful and positive change for our world.
“In some Native languages the term for plants translates to ‘those who take care of us.’”
