The loss of trees during Winter Storm Fern has changed Nashville’s landscape, letting the sun shine in places that have long been shaded by tree canopy. As spring brings things to life around us, you may be wondering what to do with these new sun filled areas of your yard. Native trees and plants are wonderful options for these areas as they create habitat and food for our non-human neighbors and are more resilient to changing weather. 

Check out our latest blog post about Nashville Foodscapes, a local landscaping company that specializes in edible and ecologically beneficial gardens. They’ll partner with you to create garden spaces to meet your needs and expectations. Link in bio ☝🏽

Just published on the Love Local blog! Check out our latest article spotlighting a Nashville-based landscaping company that takes a refreshingly different approach to plants and lawn care. Nashville Foodscapes has built a business around edible and ecologically beneficial gardens. I’m honored that they allowed me to tell their story. They’re a tight-knit group of individuals who care about the earth and make a living by following their passion for native plants and helping people grow food. Give it a read, and if you’re thinking about a garden refresh, installing a new veggie or pollinator garden, or even just looking for a new lawn care company, schedule a consultation with the team.

During a recent trip to downtown Dickson, TN, I took a little time to explore the idyllic streets that feel like the small towns I grew up around in Ohio. Nestled on a side street is one of the town’s latest additions, Petal and Crumb Provisions. The bakery/flower shop offers small-batch goods made, grown, and raised in and around Dickson. Tapping into their farm-friendly, hyperlocal ethos, owners Kelsey and Kirby have hand-selected every item that you’ll find in the store. Stop in to enjoy a freshly baked pastry and a cup of coffee, or pick up provisions if you can’t make it to the grocery store. Pick up a sourdough loaf, browse vibrant flowers from their farm, and curated items from local makers.

We’re excited to introduce you to @greenllamaclean
We’re excited to introduce you to @greenllamaclean, a Johnson City, TN–based small business redefining how we think about cleaning products. During the pandemic, partners Kay Baker and Dr. Matt Keasey were inspired to reduce their family’s plastic waste and limit their exposure to the harmful chemicals found in conventional household cleaning products. Embarking on an entrepreneurial journey, they’ve created a mission-driven, sustainable company offering a line of nontoxic cleaners from dishwasher pods to laundry detergent. With people and the planet at the heart of their mission, Green Llama creates non-toxic, low-waste cleaning products where a healthy home and environment go hand in hand.

Love seeing native plant installations as part of this public school. The greenery is soothing to students and people walking by 🌿. Plants used this way also lower surrounding temperatures and provide food, shelter and habitat for insects.

I recently spent an afternoon in Highland Park, a neighborhood just northeast of Los Angeles. My absolute favorite hair stylist @washedoutsalon works out of a funky neighborhood salon there called Bunny’s. After grabbing a matcha and the crispy hippie wrap from @itshighlylikely I took a stroll. These are some of the standouts for me which I highly recommend if you like books, vintage, local food, good coffee, and/or sustainable, locally made low waste goods!

During my last visit to Santa Fe, NM, I finally made it to @moderngeneralfeedandseed . This local gem features the best coffee and freshest breakfast I had during my stay. The bright space draws you in with fresh flowers, and thoughtfully placed bright yellows.  Their curated selection offers visitors beautiful handmade goods, organic seeds, and reading material for anyone who loves the natural world. A visit to Santa Fe wouldn’t be complete without a stop here 💛

Did you know that the majority of plant seeds available for sale are mass produced by a handful of giant multi-national corporations? In our latest blog post we explore the benefits of choosing heirloom and organic seeds from local and independent seed producers. Learn how the decisions you make for your veggie garden can positively affect the larger environment around you.
