  • I Found 22 Ducklings on My Roof: A Nature-Curious Story of Trust and Transformation
    2025/06/17

    A few weeks ago, I found 22 baby ducklings on my roof. Not one. Not ten. But 22 fluffy, peeping, impossibly cute ducklings on the eaves of my Florida home. The videos I made became viral on Instagram and Tiktok, and so many people DM-ed me asking for updates! To be honest, it was one of the happiest and most bizarre times of my life because it made me realize how much my relationship with nature and plants had evolved to another level. Becoming nature-curious opened my eyes to the beauty of not just plant care, but also how much it lit up the world around me.


    In this episode, we learn:
    • [01:34] How 22 ducks changed my perspective on nature and plants
    • [03:57] What "nature curious" lifestyle means to me
    • [06:27] I used to be “plant blind”
    • [07:45] How I changed after moving from 500 sq ft to 5 acres
    • [11:26] Becoming sensitive to nature’s subtle sounds & shifts
    • [12:42] How I met Mama Duck (and how she learned to trust me)
    • [14:36] Feeding the ducklings and fostering a bond with them!
    • [15:14] Stop wishing for that magic stress-erasing wand and grab the next best thing: Wind River Chimes!
    • [17:02] Join the movement of confident female gardeners with Dovetail x John Deere Workwear!
    • [20:24] How I discovered the next set of ducklings… on my roof!
    • [22:56] The poetry of seeing ducklings fledge from my roof!
    • [27:53] What we can learn from nature about adaptability and change

  • Gardening for Better Soil
    2025/06/10
    How do you view soil in your garden? A lot of us look at soil as just the brown stuff under our feet. We usually don’t think about all of the different components that make up soil, all of the different organisms living in soil, or how it is this whole environment that our plants depend on. It is a living, breathing ecosystem that could be the answer to improving your entire garden. As gardeners, you know that soil is important so you should be feeding it, not just feeding your plants. And there's no better person to talk about that topic today than Juliet Sargeant, an award-winning British garden designer, educator, and author of Start with Soil: Simple Steps for a Thriving Garden.In this episode, we learn:[00:00] Why soil is more than just dirt[03:28] Who is Juliet Sargeant?[05:31] Soil as a mix of science and creativity[09:02] What are the different components of soil?
