Pollinator Gardens

1st year attracting monarch butterflies with swamp milkweed and mexican sunflowers

Every year my goal is to get bigger and bigger going forward! I have free range birds – if only I could keep them outta my flower beds

This will be the public description for your project.

Front and back yard panted with native plants only. This largely consists of pollinators, including vegetables.

Establish a native wildflower garden in my front yard

In 2024 we were introduced to Joey Santore found of Kill Your Lawn: Crime Pays but Botany Doesn’t. We were sold! So in 2025 we completely revamped our yard by focusing on building healthy soil and incorporating native plants throughout the entire front yard.

This is my little slice of garden where I am trying to create a space for all pollinators including our beautiful monarchs.

Removal of grass. Planting pollinator plants. Organic as possible with no use of harmful chemicals.
