My name is Brigit Burbank and I am the author of this native plant blog. I am an amateur gardener based in Baltimore, MD, who loves learning about native plants, ecology, and land stewardship. There are so many resources available for native plant gardeners, and a finite amount of time to explore them all. My blog is a collection of resources that I have found helpful for understanding the ecological reasons behind why we garden with native plants. Each blog post describes a book, podcast, or article that has valuable takeaways for native plant gardeners.
