What You Plant Matters and what we eat depend on pollinators! The simple act of planting natives can help pollinators: birds, bats, butterflies, moths, flies, beetles, wasps, small mammals, and bees need us to plant (or preserve) diverse native plants for habitat and food sources.

Join us!!

🐝 Join Deep Roots’ guest speaker Betsy Betros, Author, entomologist, and master naturalist for the first in our Lunch & Learn webinar series, June 2 @ noon! We will talk about why we should be INVITING insects 🪰 into our yards, instead of killing them. Betsy is an author, entomologist, master naturalist, lover of nature, and bee and 🦋 guru. She will help us understand why insects should be welcome guests 🐞 all year long, and how we can make that happen in our own gardens, and maybe encourage others to do so as well.

I don’t use manure as an amendment, but some people do. Beware.

I had the best time this morning with 140 of the nicest ladies from Missouri Women in Ag! They came out to see our little farm and the big things we get to do. Talked water sequestration, biodiversity, native pollinators (of course), and veggies. Such a gracious group with a wealth of knowledge! Come back any time! https://www.moagwomen.com/about-us
