About Ruth Gonzalez: Ruth has actively gardened since her college years – ranging from organic market farming to tiny-space gardens to gardening for pollinators. Organic gardening, pollinator habitat, and the wonderment of nature are her passions. An artist, occasional garden designer, and a NC Certified Plant Professional, Ruth has worked at Reems Creek Nursery since 2003 and is inspired by an ever-widening array of ant palettes and landscape design approaches – particularly those gardening practices that reignite our connection to beauty, delight, and all of nature.
