Simple living,

seasonal rhythms,

and everyday

views from my backyard.

Views From My Backyard is a quiet corner of the internet dedicated to the simple moments that often get overlooked — changing seasons, muddy boots, garden plans, snowy walks, and the everyday beauty found right outside the back door.

This space grew out of a love for nature, gardening, foraging, simple living, and life with dogs, all viewed through a slower, more intentional lens. You won’t find perfection here — just real life, filmed as it unfolds. From early spring garden prep to winter walks, from backyard projects to peaceful nature scenes, this channel and website are about reconnecting with the world around us.

I believe there’s value in paying attention to small things:

The sound of snow under boots
A dog’s joy on a quiet road
Seeds started long before spring arrives
Preparing ahead so life feels calmer, not busier

Views From My Backyard is also about self-reliance and thoughtful preparation — gardening, seasonal planning, simple DIYs, and learning to work with nature instead of rushing past it.

If you’re looking for a slower pace, a breath of fresh air, or inspiration to appreciate the life you already have, you’re in the right place.

Pull up a chair, look around, and enjoy the view.
