Living rural in the city is hip and urban – and you can, too.
I have my email in the footer below (to the right. There, do you see it?) — and you can always try this form here:
By the way, have you considered joining my email list? You’ll get a confirmation e-mail, and then another Welcome email from me right away. If you choose, you can reply to that and get a package of milkweed seeds.

Rewilding is about converting your lawn to groundcover (bit by bit!) to native species to foster biodiversity and conserve water. It creates food and habitat for pollinators, harmless insects, and urban wildlife. Finally, you'll only trim it 2-3 times per season rather than every 7-10 days!
The green driveway gallery shows you how you can DIY a driveway conversation using my first model as an example. There are other ways to do it, and things I learned in the process and afterward. Send me an email if you have any questions.
If you cannot do it yourself, I install bird strike prevention (to stop birds from crashing into windows and glass balconies) whenever the temperature is above 5ºC. It's important to do this earlier rather than later, in time for bird migrations in late April to end of May, and late August to mid-October.
Sign up if you are interested in a bi-monthly newsletter. It'll have even more goodies than the blog (DIY, Q&A, and more!). Bonus: milkweed seeds. This perennial plant will attract bees and butterflies to your yard.
