RE: Boosting Your Homestead or Garden with Native Plants
Thank you! There is so much to learn about our native plants - I know the trees and shrubs fairly well but still learning about the herbs.
I'm not on discord - I never tried it before but it has come up several times in the comments here on Steemit. Let me check it out and I will get back to you.
Yes there certainly are! I am very much a newbie to natives partly because I have only lived in this region for 1 1/2 years and also because though I hiked through native ecosystems as a youth I wasn't exposed to much more beyond that until I got into gardening and permaculture much later in my life. It is so fun to learn. I'll look forward to hear more about native plants in Olympia. You might check out Kelly of @ofsedgeandsalt who has a website https://www.ofsedgeandsalt.com/ where she not only provides botanical profiles of native plants (of Northern California and surrounding regions) which is probably helpful to us in OR and WA for the sake of being prepared for phytomigration and global warming. She also has a podcast and wildcrafts wild medicines.
I look forward to see you on discord if you make it on there! It can be accessed via website, mobile app or desktop app per your preference.
I will check out Kelly's site - thanks for the suggestion! I have been very busy and have not a had a chance to check out discord but I have not forgotten and it is on my list!
Thanks for the update. No worries. You are busy doing good things! Talk to you soon.
