Butterflies are urban canaries indicating diverse natural habitats that support all sorts of beneficial pollinators .  No butterflies equals poor urban habitat. Only one or two sightings or species means the habitat is lacking in many of the elements needed to support a diverse community. Here’s how to create a Butterfly Park in your backyard or community garden.   §   A Butterfly Park is an area planted in a sunny spot in your garden to attract butterflies (and other pollinators) filled with a variety of native perennial nectar and host plants. §   Sure, you can plant annuals and sunflowers in a Butterfly Park . Just remember you will have to replant or replace annuals every year.   §   Most native plants will tolerate weather conditions in the area and may be drought tolerant. You should, however, mulch the Butterfly Park to help retain water and keep the weeds down.   §   Butterflies and the nectar and host pl...

April is Earth Month, an expansion on the action-orientated principles of Earth Day , which was conceptualized in 1969.  The basic idea is to protect our environment by being aware and conservative in our use of resources. This can take many forms, from eating healthy through local sources, supporting businesses that promote sustainable practices and realizing the options available to us as consumers.   When I'm cleaning my home, I cringe every time I have to dump a bucketful of chemical filled dirty water down the drain, knowing it could end up in our water system.  Though most of our water gets treated to remove harmful particles before we use it again (our water is a process of recycling ya know), sometimes the water doesn't make it to the treatment plant .  Sometimes, due to poor city infrastructure, it gets washed back out into our waterways during a heavy rain or seeps into the ground in our communities or overflows into our streets from ...

These little bags, which hold clementines, apples, brussels sprouts, and more, are too cute to throw away. Here are some genius ideas our crafty fans came up with for ways to reuse mesh produce bags. We love crafts using recycled materials! Wad them up in a ball, secure with an elastic, and use them as scrubbies to clean nonstick pans and other dishes.   Hang the bags from a mirror and throw hair bows in them for easy access.   Make potpourri sachets from them. First line each bag with colored tissue paper, fill them with a small amount of potpourri, and tie them shut with a decorative ribbon.   Carry sand toys to the beach inside of them.   Hold skeins of yarn inside the mesh bags, then pull from the ce...
