Tammi Hartung shares her personal philosophy on making the vegetable garden an extension of the natural habitat rather than a fortress. By creating positive relationships with local wildlife through strategic plant selection and placement, attracting beneficial insects and native pollinators, and enlisting the help of wild predators such as birds, bats, and toads, gardeners will encourage a diverse ecosystem and reap the benefits!
