Even in the cold months I love to go out into the garden and snoop around to see what is happening with the plants and bugs. I have a tendency to be neglectful during the holidays, but once January hits I am planning my next big project for the yard. This year we are...

The third local garden the boys and I explored was the Luther Burbank Home & Gardens, located in downtown Santa Rosa, CA. “Where world-renowned horticulturist, Luther Burbank, lived and experimented with plants for most of his 50-year career.” I really...

I am not a fan of the rain, but I am hoping that when the sun comes out it will be a second chance at catching a swarm of bees. I am hearing from other people that the swarms are out there and they have caught a few, but my two bait boxes are being completely ignored....

I will start by saying I have not used weed killer in a few years because it is very bad for bees, bugs, and humans. I am not going to lie. I miss it. That stuff would kill every single weed in my driveway like a champ. Spray once and death spread across the cracks...
