Hello and welcome to my 1 acre Empty Nest Gardens here in Zone 5/5b Ontario 🇨🇦. 1 yr pre Covid we began our "empty nest" season in life and so reignited my interest in gardening as something to nurture and feed my creative brain. This became ever more important to my mental/physical health in the 2yrs that followed. Going through a pandemic with a worsening autoimmune disease has been isolating.
Follow along as I try to live better by getting out in the garden everyday. I've added/expanded perennial borders by learning about propagation and seed starting. Started a mini orchard and berry patch. My husband (Bill) built a raised bed kitchen garden behind our garage to learn to grow veg. In '22 I will add a wildflower area & develop a "Secret Garden" beside the garden shed.
I've started putting up videos on this channel as a way to archive the changes to our property and keep myself accountable. I also hope to share what I've learned and pass it on.
