Welcome to June—the biggest planting month of the year. The soil has warmed up, making the ground a wonderful host for new, young flower and vegetable plants. With the threat of frost behind us, we can safely plant summer gardens.

Did you hear something rummaging in the undergrowth, but you couldn’t see who was making all the noise? It could be an Eastern towhee, like this one that Merle Yoder photographed on the Granby Land Trust’s Katan-Ensor Preserve.
Most people know that bees are one of the most important pollinators of not just our pretty flowers, but also many of our important food crops.

May is here! Bringing with it the sounds of birds chirping, frogs croaking and the sweet smell of spring blossoms. This means it’s time to put on garden gloves, clean up the dormant planting beds, and prepare our soil for a new year of growth.
