awesome! glad to hear you're already busy planting :) lavender is such a great choice. yes, so many are still in the dark about this and our governments owned by the corporations aren't helping or making any big moves. i read a study yesterday as well that said that even in neighborhoods, if everyone planted a little patch for the pollinators, it would add up in a significant way.
