You never know when inspiration will strike.
I go on a lot of garden tours and snap photos to capture ideas to consider for my garden.
What you’ll find here is dozens of idea galleries organized by themes. Arbors. Doors. Chairs. Art. Veggie Beds. And lots more.
It’s also the place where I share my love of birds and wildlife with ideas to better our gardens for their well-being.
And, if you’re looking to buy what you need, hop down to the shopping area. There are all sorts of intriguing items there.
