Easy Kids’ Craft: Happy Camper Garden Planter

May 9, 2017 By Wendy 3 Comments

A few years ago, my dad bought a cute little retro camper to restore. He and my son worked together to turn it into an eye-popping beauty, my mom decorated it like a pro, and they all love take it camping throughout the summer. They had so much fun doing it together that my dad…

Easy Color Theory Tips for a Fun, Colorful Garden

April 9, 2017 By Wendy 2 Comments

When you see this scene in your front yard, you just know it’s a feel-good day. Why? Well, first and foremost, it means that new plants are finding their homes. (We ripped out almost every single plant and shrub around our home late last year) and second, it means that Monrovia plants are in the…

Ready to Garden? Plant a Meatball!

March 29, 2016 By Wendy 17 Comments

The eggplant, a vegetarian recipe staple, has always been a source of heated yet friendly contention between my mother and I. She tells me I should love it, I tell her I don’t. She tells me I’m just flat out wrong and should try it again. So when my tattoo artist suggested that a small…

Burpee Gardens Butterflies

August 19, 2015 By Wendy Leave a Comment

Last Friday, I had the incredible opportunity to spend the day among writers, chefs, photographers and other garden enthusiasts at a media event held at Burpee Gardens’ Fordhook Farm. I haven’t even processed the magic enough yet to be able to tap the experience out on the keys, but I did go through some photos….

3 Easy Curb Appeal Tips (for the low-maintenance gardener!) #LetsGarden

May 10, 2015 By Wendy 40 Comments

  This post has been sponsored by Monrovia, but all opinions are my own. Why Monrovia plants? Because my Mom says so, and Mom is always right. OK, so that’s not the only reason we’re Monrovia gardening fans (although Mom’s opinion is usually the one I trust.) I’m a lifetime garden lover and my husband…

Zucchini Recipes: Zucchini Shepherd’s Pie

July 20, 2014 By Wendy 26 Comments

And so it begins. The zucchini onslaught. Please send zucchini recipes, STAT! In fact, it’s almost Sneak Some Zucchini onto your Neighbor’s Porch Day. (Although that usually works better at night.) See, at this time of year, at least here in Pennsylvania, zucchini plants are in super production mode, and we gardeners often find ourselves with…

How to Make Wild Violet Syrup

May 15, 2014 By Wendy 32 Comments

My grandmother always loved wild violets. I do, too, and that’s why they were the flowers I chose for my wedding. Not the smartest move, perhaps, since the edible candied violets were impossible to find and I had to order some that were imported from France. They sat atop vanilla bean cupcakes swirled with white…
