About caretaker

Born in Niagara Falls, Canada. Schooled both in Canada and the United States, I've always had a love for nature, flowers and garden critters. As a child of the 60's I became aware very early in life about environmental and sustainable life styles. Those interests combined with an undeniable urge to help people remember that life is miraculous, that we are a part of nature, not apart from it. These issues have inspired me to share images and stories that help to remind us all that there's a little bit of magic and miracles in every day in this Our Enchanted Garden.

When all goes smooth and sets up with ease it’s often the “way to go” and when the nudges come from a deep desire within, it just seems right to follow through and see where the nudges are leading?
