About S. Bizzy Gardens

When the dogwoods bloom in the forest shade, Crestline briefly looks decorated — white blossoms floating between dark trunks — and that is when S. Bizzy Gardens is busiest. The work is close and particular: garden beds tucked around mountain cabins, borders coaxed into color despite the cool nights, small lawns kept soft between the trees. Gardening at altitude means choosing what will actually thrive and then paying attention to it, week over week, as the hummingbirds arrive and the days stretch out. There is a hum to a well-worked garden that suits the name. In a town the forest could easily swallow, these small tended plots are little arguments for staying.
