Returning To My Peaceful Space ....Today and Tomorrow


Here's how to befriend the bees, butterflies and birds


It has been sometime since I last posted, so I apologize to all of you ~

Here is an update:


I have found myself in a beautiful space in time. My new space is both peaceful and beautiful. The birds grace my yard daily, dancing around the plants and trees with glee. My world is full of life. Just down the walkway, there is a bee and butterfly garden, so busy with life that it gives me hope for nature's friends, the bees and the butterflies, the birds and trees. 


Did you realize, that in some places in the world, the children have never seen a bee or a butterfly. I cannot imagine ! I have loved and admired our fabulous pollinators at work, providing the necessary element that grows our food, and adding beauty to our yards and gardens. 

Grow gardens...Not Lawns ~

I am teaching my grandson to love nature...we go earthing, catching the wind and staring in amazement at the heritage trees, in all their giant glory, the tall pines and colorful maples, we observe the bees, not wanting him to be frightened of the bees, with their inherent sweet nature, legs full of golden pollen, as they flit from flower to flower. I live through the wonder in his eyes ~


My new space, a place to grow and try new experiences. I feel the freedom and I am happy in my peaceful space ~





Gen shares some great tips on reducing the impact of pesticides on honeybees. She shares which types of pesticides you should never use, which ones are only safe if you spray them at dawn or dusk (when bees are less active), and which ones won’t impact honeybees. You’ll definitely want to bookmark her post for future reference.


Be well and Happy ~ Holly
