How would you like to provide pollen and nectar for pollinators from March through November while reaping a harvest of nutritious fruits, berries, edible flowers and perennial vegetables for your use during the same months? Join Dani Baker as she surveys a multitude of carefree native flowering food plants through the growing season.
