Hi, I’m JoBeth

I'm an educator, gardener, and naturalist who believes your yard can be beautiful, manageable, and full of life without becoming a second job.

The Living Yard grew out of my love for native plants, backyard wildlife, and helping people understand what's happening just outside their door.

I share practical ways to work with your yard, support wildlife, and make changes that fit your space, your goals, and your life.
