Women's Garden Gloves

Samantha has been trying out some new gloves from our friends Tom and Mary over at Garden Like a Girl.  And she's enjoyed using them while we try to make more progress on a multi-year effort to return our large backyard understory into a native habitat. (We have more than 15 mature Douglas firs, cedars, and Scotch pines crammed onto less than half an acre, and when we moved into this house a little over 5 years ago there wasn't a single plant growing other than weeds, fungi, and persistent starts of Himalayan blackberry. This fall we have put in another 20 bare root ferns, some additional wild strawberry, Oregon grape, and salal as well as dividing snowberry, salmon berry, and other Oregon natives we've planted over the past couple of years.
