Bees aren’t the only important pollinators…
As Thanksgiving approaches, be sure to remember and thank the amazing animals that made most of your food possible through seed dispersal, pollination and insect control! 🧡

Happy Solstice!
On the eve of Summer Solstice...
'Midsummer's eve ushers in the longest day and a season of growth, renewal and abundance that helps us keep heart, celebrate in the outdoors and enjoy the sweetness of the season.
Historically, Solstice is a time for garlands made of St. John's wort, mugwort, and lavender. Gardens offer up hollyhocks flower dolls, chive vinegar, yarrow and plantain salve, strawberry shortcake, elder-flower fritters and cordial, lavender wands and an abundance of summer greens and lush floral bouquets to share with friends and family.
The abundance of fragrant, colorful and styptic rose petals available would be distilled, infused, tinctured, and strewn on summer salads, floors and pathways.
May this Solstice carry the reminder that the wheel of life is much larger than us. Seasons roll on, and perhaps the best we can do is cultivate our own little patch of earth and leave our habitat a little better each year. Best wishes for a joyful and celebratory turning of the season! May your find unexpected magic in your own back yard! The Heirloom Gardener - John Forti
