Did u know?Folks say to me what do you mean by "no-dig"?Digging your soil regularly means baring its nutrients to the harsh sun to dry out;it means destroying its structure,where trillions of microorganisms & small souls take shelter,creating a balanced ecosystem that supports so much life. 🌿🌱🇬🇧🌱🌍🪲🪱🦠

The landscape was covered in a thin coating of ice, so when the sun rose, I had intended to capture backlit sparkle on the foliage that grows along the shoreline of Vermilion Lakes. Instead, the frozen lake itself provided a beautiful bokeh in the background for a dreamy effect. 🫧
