Have you ventured outside yet? Had sundowners on your deck or balcony? Dragged the garden furniture out of storage? I am daring to dream that we are now in the days that signal summer is around the corner. With summer comes al fresco dining and a look at our outdoor spaces.

While the pandemic is officially over, our new love of outdoor living is here to stay and it’s time to get out into our gardens, or little patch of fresh air, no matter how small.
