Today, since it is nice out I am going to plan and measure for the monarch way station. I believe part of our front yard will work wonders for this idea. For more information about starting a Monarch Way Station click here.
First on my to do list is kill all the grass in the area I want to plant. Which shouldn't be a problem, I plan to put down cardboard and soil amenities like compost, newspaper, coffee grounds, and manure. Our top two feet of soil is mostly rock, since not much thrives on rock I have to soil build.
I am going to get most of my "wildflower" plants from Wildflower Farm.They graciously separate the flowers by state, so you can purchase native plants.
