If you’ve followed my blog for any time, you’ll know that I’ve been an active monarch conservationist for the last 25 years. Over that time, I’ve taught hundreds of community members and thousands of school-aged children about the Monarch Butterfly, their life cycle, habitat, and migration. For me, trends in monarch conservation have come and…
I started this morning reviewing some blog articles I wrote in 2012, 2013, and 2014 for a website I made for my elementary after-school garden club students and parents. Reading my own words brought back many fond memories of the years I led this group I founded in 2004. It ended in 2017, but then…

When supposed nature lovers take every opportunity to cut someone down, it turns me off. Over the last few years, I’ve noticed a trend on social media. The trend is nastiness. And I’ve noticed it in the most unlikely of places: nature groups! I’m an environmental educator, formally trained with a master’s degree in natural…
Did I have a writer? Did I have a mathematician? Did I have an athlete? Did I have an inventor? Did I have … At six, most kids don’t know what they want to be. Even if they exhibit high potential or even giftedness in a particular area. In Kindergarten, one of mine wanted to…

Have you ever heard of a plant that doesn’t need soil to thrive? There are a whole group of such plants! They are called epiphytes! You might know them as air plants.
