All things green, outdoors, and nature-y. Whether it's animals in their natural habitat, hiking trails and mountains, or planting a little garden for yourself (and everything in between), you can talk about it here.

See also our Environment community, which is focused on weather, climate, climate change, and stuff like that.

I've transformed most of my 1 acre yard from lawn to native plant gardens. Native plants support biodiversity!

Huh, I've hated gorse since childhood (having to walk through it during school camps sucked), it's interesting to hear that it can actually be used in a way that's beneficial to our neat native species!
