Here's a handshake - apparently we both have 400 subscribers! (They can't possibly be the same people. Can they?!)

Congrats, Anne! I know there is a lot of overlap with my @ElizabethGoudgeBookclub so I think they are likely different, but equally lovely people I'm sure! :) Substack is amazing. Such a gift to writers and people who wish for an encouraging, quieter social platform.

I am a person just learning how to live with plants, as you say. I just started a tiny native plant garden for pollinators, and we'll see what happens!

Very exciting! There is always more to observe and learn in this world, so I wish you have a lot of joy on the journey!

I am delighted with this! As a newbie to Substack, to your writing, and one who has many pots on the fire, I am not sure how I will keep up, but I am excited to learn. Two years ago my husband and I purchased a house and two acres for a retreat space, and while the house is up and running, there is much to be done in the yard! I look forward to inspiration and wisdom - more than I get by lurking in the edges of IG world!

Hello Claire! So nice to meet you here in this new space :) I would love to hear more about your retreat center, and would love to chat more about your vision for the gardens. There are about a hundred things that come to my mind about planning a garden that might be helpful to you in where you are, so I'll think more about how I can write to that need to encourage you. Thanks for saying hello!
