Penelope Bianchi Asked

Merely pretty?  Think again, this is serious business.  Without pollinator habitat we die.  


What is pollinator habitat?  Macro description, you want high density & low density in your garden.  Micro details,  trees-shrubs-groundcovers and open meadow/gravel terrace, water.  With plant selection mixed for something coming into bloom all year.


Penelope thinks she's merely standing in her beloved garden.  More, she's bathing in maximum pollinator habitat.

Why care about pollinators?  Increasing pollinators can increase crop yields almost 80%.
.
Wendell Berry has been writing agricultural essays for decades about big agriculture with machines-chemicals-devastation of communities (every pun intended) vs. small farms, mostly organic, producing more/acre than big agriculture.
.
Have had a crush on Penelope Bianchi since first seeing her gardens & interiors.  Loved her before I knew she existed.

Garden & Be Well,   XO Tara
