Read This Before Commenting - Ownership - I CAN REWILD

Scene from a Suburban Small Plot Home Blog. Nature-loving couple garden, create bird, butterfly, bullfrog friendly backyard environment.

This is a snark-free zone. I'm not expert at anything, nor am I perfect. I'm simply in love with life and our planet, all of nature, including human beings. I'm worried about climate change, species and habitat loss. I intend this blog to be a positive, inspiring online space where I share my daily journey of learning to live a slower, simpler, saner, thriftier, healthier life, more connected to nature and old ways, considering and inching toward a more sustainable, self-reliant and creative existence, living lighter on our mother planet and in my body, mind and soul. Please be kind and thoughtful in your comments. I do want conversation here, and I'm open to learning better ways of doing things, but I won't post any nasty comments.

  If you visited us, you'd say we have no land for a vegetable and herb garden. Our tiny city-size lot is little more than six-thousand sq. ft. and upon moving into the 2 bedroom Cape Cod late autumn of 2011 we pulled up the entire yard--lawn, English ivy, a forest of sassafras and myriad other weedy and invasive botanical species and re-landscaped with small bushes, seasonally flowering perennials, grasses, ferns and other ornamentals, trying always to choose climate-friendly and native species. The backyard micro-woods on the highest level of our terraced yard, despite ongoing strategic tree limb pruning, creates so much shade that there's not enough sunlight to intersperse vegetable and herb plantings anymore. The first year or two we lived here it worked. We successfully grew several tomato varieties, rainbow chard and kale, but as the trees mature creating more shade and the husband grows his bonsai hobby utilizing not only our patio space for  tiered benches lined with th

  There's so much I want to write about and share here. I've been thinking of starting this blog for more than a year, maybe even two years, but the confidence, energy, and focused vision for it have only just converged and solidified, allowing me to launch it. That's how creative projects usually happen with me. A small grain of an idea floats into consciousness, and there it drifts, in and out of thought, for however long it needs before either dying and clearing room for another to enter, or it taking hold of me, putting down roots and blooming into action. I hope to make writing and posting here a ritual and intend to post most days. I've got lots of plans for learning new outdoor  nature based skills  and executing self sufficiency projects like organic vegetable and herb gardening and making our home and yard more earth and climate friendly. All of this will evolve over time. I will ease into it all, set the scene and introduce myself and our homestead slowly. Abo
