    My husband did a fall burn last year at the farm, ridding the area of dry weeds. The weeds have a beauty to them but I agree that the addition of flowers would be beneficial to birds and insects and would improve the view. Thanks Tamara, for addressing a subject I have been thinking about (wildflower growing-burning) and thank you Stephen, for teaching how to do it.

    I precisely had to thank you very much again. I'm not certain what I could possibly have tried in the absence of these hints revealed by you on such a subject. It had become a very frustrating dilemma for me, however , seeing the very specialized mode you managed that made me to weep with contentment. Extremely happier for this work and then have high hopes you comprehend what a powerful job you are doing educating many people with the aid of your websites. I am certain you've never encountered all of us.
