We had a lot of fun on Pittsburgh Today Live talking about feeding the birds. There are lots of reasons to feed them, but it’s especially important for gardeners. Feeding them through the winter establishes a foraging route. When it’s time to feed the babies, the birds will hunt the foraging route for insects.

Teri Speight was a guest on the Organic Gardening Show to discus her book Black Flora: Inspiring Profiles of Floriculture’s New Vanguard.
