Welcome Readers!

Thank you for visiting our blog. We're happy you found your way to Pillywiggins Garden. We created this blog to connect with others who share our interest in art, agriculture and nature. Future posts will contain art and garden related information, inspirations, DIY projects and tutorials. We will share our own art and garden projects, information on our upcoming events and take you along on our journey through the backwoods, gardens and galleries of Northern Michigan.

A little about us...

Pillywiggins Garden grew from a love of gardening, a newfound interest in gourd art and a handful of gourd seeds. Visit our About page to learn more.

Since childhood Jason has been exploring the woods & waters of Northern Michigan. His love of nature led to a career in landscaping & greenhouse management and an interest in all-natural, sustainable gardening practices.

I grew up on a dairy farm in mid-Michigan and I  have always loved to draw, color and create. I worked in office management for many years but my need for creativity eventually won out.  I now balance books with art and gardening. 

Pilly...what? A Pillywiggin is a flower fairy found in English & Welsh folklore. Their duty is to protect nature and tend the spring blooms. Read more about Pillywiggins HERE.
