We did some hands on teaching after Saturday’s class on how to Rewild Your Yard. Cardboard and mulch were laid out in an unused portion of our parking lot. Stay tuned for some spring planting after the grass and weeds are choked out.

📸 Photo Friday 📸

🐝🌼This week's Photo Friday highlights one of nature's hardest workers, a busy bee pollinating a vibrant bloom right here in Brazoria County.

Pollinators like bees play a vital role in supporting our local ecosystems, gardens, and agriculture. Even small changes in our own yards can help provide the food and habitat they need to thrive.

🏡 Create beautiful landscapes that can still meet HOA expectations
