FROM THE WEEKLY PODCAST
rethinking the lawn, with dan wilder
THE LECTURE that he’s been giving for a number of years is not-so-subtly called “Kill Your Lawn.” Ecological horticulturist Dan Jaffe Wilder knows that starting over and creating an entire native habitat instead of a lawn isn’t for everyone. But Dan just wants to grab our attention and get us to start to make some changes at least in the way we care for the turfgrass we do want in our landscapes. And maybe give up a little square footage of it to some other kind of more diverse planting, too, like the wild strawberries (Fragaria virginiana, inset). Alternative, more eco-focused styles of lawn care, along with some lawn alternatives is what he and I talked about on the podcast. Dan is Director of Applied Ecology at Norcross Wildlife Foundation in Wales, Massachusetts, and its 8,000-acre sanctuary. He’s also co-author with Mark Richardson of the book “Native Plants for New England Gardens.”

We will all be watching for your tips! What you wear should be a reflection of the real you! You’ve met Martha a million times before haven’t you? You’ll be great! Bloggers are usually a down to earth sort so, no pressure from this group.
Margaret, I’m going to call out sick and get better watching you on the Martha Stewart show. Have a great day!
I think you should wear your tractor, pajamas and waders. :->
I would have to agree with solid colors. Lucky for you, no worries about wearing something for a “slimming” effect. Have a great time and hopefully the frog boys didn’t get their feelings hurt not being invited.
well, wear what you like, of course. so silly, margaret….
I am going w/the hip waders and pj’s that mplonski suggested. I will leave now and drive south the 120 miles on the tractor, and see if I arrive in time.
@Chris, yes, of course. Will do. :)
Looking forward to it, Margaret! I’ll be sure to…um…blog about it!
Please go barefoot, and wave to all of us, and mention each of our names. After all, this is a rare opportunity for us. It is reminiscent of Miss Nancy on RomperRoom in 1954, looking into her magic mirror and saying “I see Mary, I see Cindy…” etc etc. Alas, she never saw Joyce….
Really, you will look wonderful whatever you wear!!
Wear what you feel comfortable in and love. The power of the garden is incredible.
We will be in the audience – Good Luck! The Partyblurprints Girls!

Welcome, Dawn. I guess I will see you tomorrow! Thank you for the well-wishes.
don’t you usually just go naked (under your clothes)??!
Ok – let’s get serious here! Camisole and leather jacket on top. Or the thin blue drapey cashmere sweater that I like or the orange jacket that I like. With either your Issey Miyake pleated pants or your tight dark jeans. I know you will wear the black soft ballet flats, so no surprise there! Can’t wait to see you on the show! Dorita
I just watched tonight’s show and have set my calendar alarm for tomorrow night. Have fun! We’ll be watching. Cameron
Do great Margaret! I’ll be one of the millions watching.
Margaret,
You did an amazing job. I was in the audience and you were natural and fun – really injected a nice mood into the segment. I can’t wait to check out your blog more!
i turned on martha just “in the nick of time” to see your segment.
you looked “MAHH-VELOUS” those “half-rimmed” specs gave you a ‘scholarly’ aura. i felt like i wass watching an old friend…. (if being a reader since your 1st blog edition march of ’08 qualifies us as “old friends” lol).
congrats to you miss M!
You looked very bee-you-tee-ful. And I’m guessing that sweater didn’t come from Sapersteins?
Welcome to Chefdruck, and thank you for the good words. If Martha and I can’t have fun together after knowing each other for 15 years, who the heck can? I figured why not play a little. Glad to have you with us.
Well, I got to see your little bit but not the rest of that show. How long until they make it available on martha’s website?
I watched the show on FLN last night! Margaret, it was so great to see you on the show! It was awesome and inspiring for bloggers. Thanks! Cameron
