Let Your Garden Grow Wild | Rebecca McMackin | TED
Many gardeners work hard to maintain clean, tidy environments … which is the exact opposite of what wildlife wants, says ecological horticulturist Rebecca McMackin. She shows the beauty of letting your garden run wild, surveying the success she’s had increasing biodiversity even in the middle of New York City — and offers tips for cultivating…

I love this idea especially Hummingbird🧬red flowers example 🫰 and topic of wild gardening. It really makes sense that for our view we just get rid of nature. I love conservation parks, because it has only tiny passing lanes for walking and cycling, natural water streams and lots of wildlife. We always go to big museums and attractions to see set up of, ‘Amazon Forest’ and click pictures for social media. But in real life we find it untidy and unorganized. 👌🍀🌿🦅

If you decide to garden for food instead of flowers, check out Korean Natural Farming. You can still be ecologically responsible and even incorporate what she’s teaching to encourage pollinators to visit by building especially biodiverse fence-lines/margins.

Outlaw HOA restrictions on gardens. Federally outlaw them. Then we can have cactus in the desert and forest and grassland yards everywhere else.

I think there’s a two-fold solution needed.
1. Remove restrictions on plants that can be grown everywhere so we can rewild.
2. Come up with a plan to protect people from dangerous plants, animals insects. We don’t want poison oak and killer wasps everywhere. We need to help keep the nasty predators we’ve protected with our actions from swarming.

We don’t use our backyard all that much, and every end of season the leaves fall. I ask my wife if we can just leave the leaves up top, but she doesn’t want them up there because the neighbors will complain.
My grass was over 2 inches once when buying the home since we had not moved in it as of that time and we got a letter on our door to cut the grass from the town.
I might need to invest in walls to prohibit onlookers to make a difference.

Every state has a native plant society. We in California have county groups with one of my favorite activities – a native plant garden tour.
They will also help advise new native plant gardeners with what and when to plant.
Good luck, and best wishes.

🥀when we give attention to the flowers in our garden, our children or grandchildren, or a puppy, they grow and thrive. The same principle holds true with our thoughts. What we think about becomes our life. Focus on thoughts that serve you and help you grow. You don’t have to do what anybody else is doing. You do have to follow your heart and have strong intentions to grow in positive directions. If you are unhappy, change the circumstances of your life that are troubling you. Add by subtracting. Move toward joy, and attend to the thoughts and intentions that bring you joy. Notice all the good in our world and focus on thoughts that make you feel good. Are you ready for your miracle?
I know of no better way of ensuring success than being who you are. That’s what we are best at —being ourselves. If anyone does not like our intentions, even family members, that’s their problem. We must be brave enough to follow our own unique dreams. If you want a surefire way to become miserable, try to be something that doesn’t suit your soul to please other people. This world is challenging enough without trying to become someone we don’t want to become to gain the approval of others. The good news is that we can change the direction of our lives as soon as we change the direction of our thoughts. Small steps each day lead to long-term improvements in mood. No one can win this battle for us. The victory will mean that we bring our distinct and one-of-a-kind gifts to the world during our one precious life🌿

but how you rise,
for there is no such thing
as a life lived without mistakes,
and so what matters
is how you let them shape you
and who you choose to become…

I own a small landscaping business in Central Colorado and this is exactly what we encourage our customers to do. People love the results. They find a renewed connection and wonder in their small yards. It is environmental activism when so many people feel helpless. We have a misconception that we have to control our yards so it can be very difficult for some people. A natural or ecological gardener helps to facilitate what nature would do on her own time, we help speed up the process.

Great idea! But I think that sometimes people cultivate their own gardens in a way that majority does because they are afraid of fire among their thickets of lush vegetation or don’t want to transform nearby garden into the forest . As a professional , do you have some tips for it and how to control garden but to do it healthy both for pollinators and human?

That sounds like all great ideas to me. Way better than being a people pleaser trying way too hard to make my garden look properly cultivated when sitting next to a perfectly manicured green lawn with not one quack grass blade and not even one dandylion present there. People pleasing only while being very careful to not disturb the sensiblities of all those who seem to fear only environmentalists like Rebecca McMackin most. People pleasing only which is always going to be a losing game.

Thank you for this beautiful speech. I had one year SEVEN different Butterflies in my garden, bc I do not spray, a lot of different pollinators too. Instead if buying herbs planting themselves in your garden helps insects and a bird bath (keep it clean) ❗️
