From away to garden.com and Robinhood Radio.com, this is Away to Garden with Margaret

Roach.

You're a weekly invitation to dig in and grow.

In a recent phone call, today's guest Tim Johnson used the phrase, bioproductive gardens,

and it stopped me.

What does he mean by that I I thought, and then he explained.

There are ways to manage our landscapes, he said,

so that everything that flows through them from rainwater

to birds leaves healthier than when it arrived.

Tell me more, I replied, and so that's my topic today

with Tim, the new leader of the long-time conservation organization

called Native Plant Trust. More in a moment but first these messages.
