A garden can become much more than a collection of flowers and vegetables when it welcomes the tiny helpers that keep nature moving. Insect hotels, bee baths, and mini ponds create inviting spaces for pollinators, predators of garden pests, and other beneficial creatures that make outdoor spaces more lively.
Many gardeners focus on what plants need, but the hidden visitors around those plants deserve attention too. A few simple additions can transform a plain backyard into a buzzing, fluttering neighborhood for insects, birds, and other small wildlife.
