This week, things get personal (and a little playful!) as Debbie, Laurie, and Chris go round-robin style in a fun backyard-themed Q&A game! 🎙️🌿 They dish on their dream features (hello, pond and bat house!), favorite parts of their yards (shade gardens, native plants, and more), and even the gardening goofs they’ve made along the way. 🙈

From invasive monkey grass to erosion woes, they don’t hold back—because every backyard habitat has a story! You’ll get practical tips on how to start small with bird feeders, water sources, and native plants, plus big-picture ideas to inspire your next outdoor project. 🐝🌼

Whether you're a newbie naturalist or a seasoned soil-stirrer, this episode will have you dreaming (and laughing!) about your own backyard possibilities.
