Terra Foundation Grant: Plants to Support Biodiversity, Part 2. The List.
Screenshot of Jennifer Ackerfield's website. She is the author of Flora of Colorado. Reminder: This is part of a series of posts on the Terra Foundation Grant I received in April of 2024. “The Terra Foundation Residential Grant provides $1,000 for native plant material to install a new garden where turf has been removed in a home landscape. The Terra Foundation is committed to biodiversity and water conservation.” The grant had extra requirements in six categories, and I am devoting at least one blog post to each of those.

New blog post. What inspores me? Results pile up over time, and you just have to keep doing, keep reflecting, keep adjusting, and keep doing in order to see those piled-up results; there’s a certain amount of fearlessness and faith that’s required. climateresilientlandscapes.earth/2026/07/31/i...

Colorado drought increasingly linked to long-term climate change
