Here in the Midwest, with its frigid days and frequent snowstorms, the winter months are the perfect time to immerse yourself in nature. No, you can’t head to the garden to putter, but you can curl up with a good book -- or a magazine -- or a blog -- or even a stack of seed catalogs to expand your horizons, learn something new and get your nature fix.
I’m always searching for something new to dig into and through the years, recommendations from friends and from professionals in the field have led me to some outstanding reads. This year I asked the staff at Embassy Landscape Group to share some of their wintertime favorites.
Not surprisingly, they’ve suggested some great choices.
