Nolan Franklin
Gardener and writer in Brant County, Ontario, exploring native plants, pollinators, birds, ecological gardening, and ordinary yards becoming living places. Through seasonal change, care, and reflection, I write about fleeting moments, small lives, and the slow work of shaping a living garden rooted in place.

An inherited hay fork, flowers after a storm, and American lady caterpillars in the garden.
From the Gardener:
In my own yard, Iām growing native plants, watching what returns, and learning how a garden can become calmer, more beautiful, and more connected to the living world around it.
