Various forms of wildlife call Sarah ’s Minnesota garden " home " .
" After 8 years of gardening I feel we ’re finally starting to achieve some privacy and restored home ground . Hooray ! When we first moved in , the marvelous affair for the birds to land on were the tomato cage . gopher and an periodic bird was the extent of wildlife . This yr the 1000 really seemed to come to life as we now have woodpeckers , squirrel , rabbits and eek … a skunk who strain to make his home under a rain bbl . I endeavor to take it as a compliment . Each year we take out a new division of grass deeply burying it under composition board and wood chips . We contribute two such division this summertime as well as an bower cut which is now paint . We ’re looking forrader to enjoy the blessing of rest and check God ’s artistry as Baron Snow of Leicester and winds of Minnesota ’s wintertime coats the bough and seed heads and sculpt heading through the cubic yard .
