Butterflies are a welcome visitor to any Arkansas garden. To attract butterflies, gardeners are planting all types of blooming plants, in the hopes that butterflies will flock to their garden.

A butterfly garden can be as small as a few containers of plants, or as large as the yard you have.

Perhaps like some of y’all, each day that we get a bit warmer temperature, I want to grab hold and hang on! But I’ve also lived around here long enough to know winter isn’t over until it decides it’s over. In the meantime, we take comfort in imagining what those warmer Spring days will be like when they arrive. And for many of us, that means outside sports.
