What a great summer- and time to get ready for fall!

Nurturing Nature has had a great first spring and summer!  I helped create some great native plant gardens and helped many people keep their gardens from being swallowed by weeds!  It's been wonderful meeting so many nice people and helping you make your gardens beautiful and good for the earth! 

So many people ask about trimming and I usually caution them to wait to do any major cutting back until the fall- so now is the time!  I'm happy to help come cut back those unruly shrubs, pull out dying flower stalks and all things to get your garden ready for fall.  There's no reason your outdoor space can't be enjoyable for at least another month with the right care!

This picture is of Boneset, which I have added to a few gardens this year and has attracted to many bees and other insects- it makes me happy to see what a difference we can make together!

What the heck is that?

Ok!  It's spring!  There's sunshine and the trees are budding, the birds are singing... and SOMETHING is coming up in your yard.  Not sure what it is and if you should let it grow or pull it out?  We can help with that.  Call us to evaluate your garden and plan for what you want to have it look like this year.

We're just getting started!

Nurturing Nature is a new Kingston, Ontario business that aims to help you make your garden or yard a beautiful AND environmentally responsible place.  Gardening with native plants provides food and habitat for birds, butterflies and bees.  Natural gardens are also hardy, saving you time and money.  We can help with any stage of gardening including designing, digging, planting, and/or maintenance. And we do almost all work by bicycle!

Please contact Lesley at 613-453-6300 for more information and/or to set up a consultation.

Please bear with us while we work on getting this website populated with more information!
