I belong to an expanding community of gardeners who encourage people to view their own gardens as living, ever-changing systems that support the web of life, and to see this as part of a larger effort to restore valuable habitat that has been lost to residential development.
Your garden can be a link in a chain of habitat gardens, uniting your home ground with the wider, wilder world beyond your neighborhood, and I can help you get started.
Suzi Katz Habitat Garden

I planted my garden with a succession of bloom in order to support wildlife year-round. This photo was taken mid-August with a mix of native and non-native annuals and perennials (Eriogonum, Penstemon, Hemizonia). The manzanitas form the backbone and will bloom in the winter.

The Rotary Peace Garden provides locals and visitors a place to socialize; it was designed to support native bees, honeybees, butterflies, and hummingbirds.
