Strategies for gardening more wisely: taking care of ourselves as we garden; assessing our home landscapes; prioritizing gardening tasks; managing mature plants; and creating smaller simpler gardens.
Do you look forward to spring for the beauty that your gardens produce? Do you love your gardens but not the seemingly endless hours of maintenance that they demand? Have you ever found yourself resenting your gardens because their care prevents you from pursuing other interests? And finally, have you come to the painful realization that you and your gardens have aged and changed over time?

Ann McEntee presents strategies for gardening more wisely: taking care of ourselves as we garden; assessing our home landscapes; prioritizing gardening tasks; managing mature plants; and creating smaller, simpler gardens.
For years, our gardens have given us great joy. This talk offers us ways by which we can continue to enjoy these beautiful spaces with much less work.
