You're watering grass you don't even like.

I'm Katelyn -
A permaculture designer, sustainable ag nerd, and proud chaos gardener living on acreage in the mountains outside of Boise with an orchard, a flock of chickens, and more ground squirrels than I'd like to admit.
I've torn out front lawns and replaced them with peach trees and garlic. I've learned what actually survives a hard Treasure Valley frost. I've built a yard that feeds us, shelters wildlife, and keeps growing even when life gets busy. I want to help you do the same.
