Picked up this fun piece of original art at a garage sale today. It is a multimédia piece done by a Polish artist (Anatoli Voznarski) living in Springfield, MO. It will be on display at Birdhouse.farm along with other interesting items. Come see all our works of art (including our wetlands and rewilded spaces).

We're always up for a garden experiment—like using this close-headed cabbage to create "trees"! One of the joys at Birdhouse.farm is getting to play, test, and tinker with our plants. Nature is full of surprises, and we love discovering them one leaf at a time.

Our wetlands might seem quiet and colorless in winter, but this place is full of life. Tall brown grasses shelter overwintering insects tucked inside hollow stems, while the water provides a vital refuge for birds and wildlife. Even in the stillness of the season, nature is at work, creating a sanctuary for the creatures that call this place home.

At Birdhouse.farm, we’re wrapping up winter with a fresh harvest of sunchokes! These hardy tubers have been resting beneath the soil and they’re ready to be unearthed. Sunchokes, also known as Jerusalem artichokes, are one of the few crops that can be harvested deep into winter, making them a reliable food source when most of the garden lies dormant.
