This land is your land, and this land is my land F

This land is your land, and this land is my land
From California to the New York Island
From the Redwood Forest to the Gulf Stream Waters
This land was made for you and me

As I went walking that ribbon of highway
And I saw above me that endless skyway
I saw below me that golden valley
This land was made for you and me

I roamed and rambled and I followed my footsteps
To the sparkling sands of her diamond deserts
All around me a voice was a-sounding
This land was made for you and me

There was a big high wall there that tried to stop me
Sign was painted, said, “Private Property”
But on the back side, it didn’t say nothing
This land was made for you and me

When the sun comes shining, then I was strolling
And the wheat fields waving and the dust clouds rolling
A voice come chanting as the fog was lifting
This land was made for you and me

This land is your land, and this land is my land
From California to the New York Island
From Redwood Forest to the Gulf Stream Waters
This land was made for you and me

We had a lovely day with Nina @beautyandthefeastgarden and Rick @landscapeillinois adventuring around our farm, garden, and nursery! From chatting about our favorite herbs and veggies, to exploring the treasures of the woods, lunch under the Sugar Maple, seeing our majestic bald eagle’s nest, and catching up on what’s going on in the field - we had a delightful time! Perfect weather and great company, we couldn’t ask for a better visit! 🌳🍃🧑‍🌾🌞🫛🌽🦅🌾💚

July Tree of the Month: Catalpa speciosa 🌳 Big,

July Tree of the Month: Catalpa speciosa 🌳 Big, bold, and beautifully #MidwestNative the Catalpa is a fast-growing shade tree with bright green, heart-shaped leaves that turn a gorgeous yellow in fall. In late spring/early summer it puts on a show with clusters of 4–8” white flowers, followed by unique, pencil-like seed pods.

Another Tried & True favorite here at the nursery!

Grower’s Note:

Catalpas keep us on our toes. They arrive as young whips with no branching, but they put on caliper quickly — demanding early and precise pruning. By their second season, they’re often ready to go! We love growing Northern Catalpa not only for its beauty and speed, but because it challenges us — and we’re here for it. 💪🌿
