Garden Philosophy:  Kill your grass & use all your space! We garden from the porch to the curb every year & strive to make our yard hospitable to ALL Memphis native wildlife, bees, butterflies, birds, & the rest.    

Favorite Garden Tip:  We used Chip Drop to get a huge delivery of wood chips, for free! We cover our garden in them each year so we rarely have to water.
