NATIVE LANDSCAPING
In the spring of 2022, I decided to try my hand at beekeeping. Through that process, I began to understand the importance of pollinators in our ecosystem. It also led me to studies on how much of an impact native plants can have - even if you don't have much space to work with! The Missouri Master Naturalist training solidified my commitment to using native plants in my designs. To further my understanding of the individual plants, I worked a season at a local native nursery. I currently design, install and maintain native landscaping for anyone looking to convert their "food desert" yards into ecologically beneficial spaces that truly come alive!
