Who Are We?
We are Shannon and Anthony Trimboli. We are lifelong nature enthusiasts who love sharing our passion with others and helping them learn about native plants, pollinators, wildlife, and the ecosystems around them.
We have degrees in wildlife biology, ecology, and agriculture, as well as, a wide range of professional and personal experiences building upon those degrees.
Together, we bring two lifetimes worth of knowledge and experience associated with loving and exploring nature, plus a synergy that comes from over 30 years of friendship and working together on wildlife-related projects, not to mention over 25 years of marriage.
Like you, we are actively working on and managing our property to attract pollinators and wildlife. So, we understand all the excitement, challenges, frustrations, and celebrations that entails. We founded Busy Bee Nursery and Consulting as a way to provide our friends and others in our local community with native plants and to help them create the pollinator and wildlife habitat of their dreams.
Our Gift to You
Did you know that garden hardiness zones don’t mean anything when it comes to gardening with native plants?
If you’re like most people, then probably not. But when it comes to growing native plants, ecoregions are more important than the more familiar plant hardiness zones.
