This was such a good interview, Jacques was completely engaged and asked great questions. I love her sunflower surprises, she seems like a kind, fun person. More interviews like this please!
I really loved her insight and analogies on gardening. Also, for warm climates, lizards are great for pest controls in addition to birds. I've seen them used commercially to avoid pesticides and once you create a habitat for them, it's great. It's cute watching them sleeping on rocks on sunny days and scurrying around the paths.
Love the analogies. Still working on finding gardeners in the midwest that are similar.... seems like lots are lower zones higher zones or majorly different climate/environment. I'm zone 5a/6b(depends which zone map you look at, but I have been 5 for years), and in the great lakes region so we get lake effect snow and seasons but I also don't want to grow in rows and use chemicals.
The if it moved kill its my garden journey was the same with me, after watching more videos i eased up my second year, lost a lot but noticed a bunch of new bugs like lacewings and their eggs and baby praying mantis around. This year I've left it again and planted way more flowers, veggies are going good except for the odd caterpillars on my peas leaves but snails are now the only pest I actively do anything to
