Hi there!
My name is Kate and I am the face behind Birchsalt. I am a Registered Nurse by background, who just happens to love all things cottage gardening. I am an amateur gardener in Maine, and am looking forward to sharing my garden journey with you.
More recently I have been finding ways to utilize as much as I can from my garden, but more on that later! 🙂
And if you’re wondering what does Birchsalt mean? Well, it’s how I find inspiration around me, from land and by sea.
Wishing all the best.
Kindly,
Kate
