This velvet beauty is not only a pollinator but the unique texture and the fact the leaves spread so wide, make them a wonderful filler plant. *Bonus* this plant is also an alley and has some nice herbal uses!

Hello to any viewers 👋

I recently moved here from NH a little over a year ago and have been looking for a project to help connect with the area and community. My love for nature, the constant need for creating and a passion for gardening brought me to this idea;

Let’s Creat little spots of joy.

That is my idea.

Our services (gardening, hard scape and design) will all be volunteer based.

We will reach out to local green houses and landscape companies to see if they have any over stock products or plants that are not the healthiest looking, they would be willing to donate.

Extra seeds or seeds harvested from other gardeners can be donated as well (We have a green house).

For the locations chosen. People can send in spots of referral for me to check in to. Also some historic sites and popular locations around the community will be contacted and given the opportunity and option to accept our offer to create a “Spot of Joy!”

I eventually would like to offer free gardening tip classes if this project takes off. Allowing folks the opportunity to come work on site during a project, while learning hands on.

I hope this seed of an idea can bloom and start growing!

This is my idea, what do you think?

Be kind and be well.
-Becca ✌️
