Ecological Gardening and Other Creative Pursuits
And suddenly it is the end of October! Time to get ready for winter! This post highlights what is blooming, fruiting, and transforming before our very eyes!

We turn the corner into November. It is amazing how much is still blooming and how many fruits are still available! Here is a quick autumn garden inventory. Lots of pictures of flowers, fruits, fall colors, and cute grandkids – plus an amazing bald-faced hornet’s nest that was revealed after the leaves had fallen!
It’s a phrase that brings me back to when my teenage kids would hang for long periods on the open door of the refrigerator
