Kayla | Pawpaw & Petals

Welcome to Pawpaw & Petals — a channel about turning an ordinary yard into a living, breathing habitat, and raising kids who grow up outside in it.

Here you'll find videos on:
🌿 The Backyard as Sanctuary — native plants, keystone species, pollinator gardens, and the small ecological shifts that bring birds, bees, and butterflies back to suburban yards.
🌳 Nature & the Kids — low-tech childhood, unstructured outdoor play, and the kind of experiential learning that happens when kids are given dirt, bugs, and time.
🌾 Suburban Homesteading — slow living, growing and preserving food, and building a household that's a little more self-sufficient, one season at a time.

I'm not preaching turning your lawn into a wild meadow. I'm bridging the gap of traditional landscaping with native plants to make an ecological impact without battling the HOA. 

Subscribe if you're ready to slow down and look a little closer at your own patch of ground.
