Continue ShoppingHave you heard of it? I first heard the term in another blog about our newest generation of gardeners. It is basically a trend where your growing space is returned to a more natural habitat that can provide food, water and shelter for all the living things in your garden; birds, small woodland creatures and of course pollinators.
From a design perspective it's all about putting Mother Nature in the driver's seat and, here is the hard part, letting go! Rewilding is about NOT being in control. What that means is less focus on hardscaping and more about introducing spaces that would be naturally occurring, like planting a native hedge instead of a traditional wood or metal fence. Or creating a meadow simply for pollinators, that requires less attention from human touch and can be over-planted to help control weeds.
Until recently, rewilding was a term reserved for large scale conservation projects. Restoring ecosystems to a point of balance , where it can take care of itself, and being able to reconnect with a natural world.
Over time I intend to introduce new garden spaces to our Cut Your Own Flower Garden, and this is high on the list for 2022. So Day 21 in our 24 Days of Giveaways is an escape to Stems Flower Farm. You will enjoy a Cut Your Own Experience for two people and as an added highlight, we will provide lunch while you’re here.
This prize is best suited for August or September of 2022.

I used to spend so much time pruning, cutting leaves, shaping, etc…all my veggies, flowers, and plants during the summer growing season. One year I had very little time off work and with a big garden everything got away from me…I didn’t cut back my tomato plants and believe it or not they did better that year then previous. After that I just let nature take its course…come what may…nature always finds a way!

I’m a fairly young (30s) gardener and I’ve not heard the term before but I like it. It’s definitely what my hubby and I are striving for around our home :)

I had the pleasure of painting sunflowers on your farm back in September. Painting in nature is a relaxing way to connect with nature and see inspiring way to capture textures and colours.

I have been trying to start a natural wildflower area between our fence and the ditch that borders our road. We cut back the longish grass and seeded with a wildflower mix last spring but not much grew. In the fall I spread some seeds from my annuals and some perennials. I can’t wait to see if anything grows this spring!
