What's Growing in Grandma's Garden by Susan Soares Pdf

A grandmother and her grandson share a love for gardening. They explore different plants including fruits, vegetables, and medicinal herbs. They also examine the bugs that come with gardening life including both good and bad bugs. One of grandma's favorite plants is cannabis. She uses the plant both for healing and for relaxation. She teaches the grandson about the reasons why some things are just for grownups. Children are smarter than we give them credit for (I know my grandchildren are!) and this book is a way for them to "just say know" when it comes to cannabis.Now that cannabis is legal in a majority of US States and opening up worldwide, it's time to start talking to our children about cannabis. Children are smarter than we give them credit for. That is the largest failure of D.A.R.E. when they used the motto "Just Say NO!" when they should have said, "Just Say KNOW!". Don't hide your consumption from your children. It's time to have a conversation with your children about cannabis and this book is a perfect way to talk about it!

New Naturalism by Kelly D. Norris Pdf

Recreate the wild beauty and thriving ecology of meadows, prairies, woodlands, and streamsides in your own garden. In New Naturalism, horticulturist and modern plantsman Kelly D. Norris shares his inspiring, ecologically sound vision for home gardens created with stylish yet naturalistic plantings that mimic the wild spaces we covet—far from the contrived, formal, high-maintenance plantings of the past. Through a basic introduction to plant biology and ecology, you’ll learn how to design and grow a lush, thriving home garden by harnessing the power of plant layers and palettes defined by nature, not humans. The next generation of home landscapes don’t consist of plants in a row, pruned to perfection and reliant on pesticides, fertilizers, and herbicides to survive. Instead, today’s stunning landscapes convey nature’s inherent beauty. These gardens are imbued with romance and emotion, yet they have so much more to offer than their gorgeous aesthetics. Naturalistic garden designs, such as those featured in this groundbreaking new book, contribute to positive environmental change by increasing biodiversity, providing a refuge for wildlife, and reconnecting humans to nature. In the pages of New Naturalism you’ll find: Planting recipes for building meadows, prairies, and other grassland-inspired open plantings even in compact, urban settings Nature-inspired ways to upgrade existing foundation plantings, shrub beds, and flower borders to a wilder aesthetic while still managing the space Inspiration for taking sidewalk and driveway plantings and turning them into visually soft, welcoming spaces for humans and wildlife alike Ideas for turning shady landscapes into canopied retreats that celebrate nature Creative ways to make an ecologically vibrant garden in even the smallest of spaces New Naturalism approaches the planting beds around our homes as ecological systems. If properly designed and planted, these areas can support positive environmental change, increase plant and animal diversity, and create a more resilient space that’s less reliant on artificial inputs. And they do it all while looking beautiful and improving property values.
