I love helping a family learn to grow food. Learning to garden will always include failures but when I teach and guide my clients along the way I get to know them and what best suits their lifestyle. In many situations the answer to that success is container gardening with tower gardens. (Not sponsored 😂) I’ve got 2 towers of my own and have installed multiple over the years for happy customers. I’ve nailed down the soil mix, the companion planting techniques and the beauty with function always provides. Come along with me to get this busy family out four growing, cooking and eating their own home grown produce! Side Note: have y’all seen the price of organic herbs at the grocery store? 😩Hiring me to help empower you to grow your own is just a smart financial decision! 😂 But seriously the joy and love the garden grows for us is truly priceless. See ya next time in a garden. Where will Summer take us next? Happy June yall. Love sure does grow here. ❤️👏🏻🌿 #704 #

Every species tells a story. You can help write the next chapter. The extinction crisis can feel overwhelming, but the solution starts right outside your door. Pollinators—from bees and butterflies to birds and bats—are the heartbeat of our ecosystems. But they are facing threats like habitat de...

Yard projects don’t have to cost thousands of dollars and months of stress. Sometimes a small change can make a BIG impact! If you build the space, the plants will come! 🌿💪👏🏻❤️ # #704

Growing food is empowering. Watching a plant produce a fruit that feeds yourself and your family renews your spirit which empowers you. Learning and cultivating a new hobby is empowering. We can do so much with just a little seed and some ambition. “They protested in rows of tomatoes…” We can all be superheroes, the power is in the garden. I like to use my superpower for salsa! How about you?

Are you setting yourself up for disappointment before you even bring your new plant baby home? We are often awe struck at all the blooms and fruit ready for the picking filling the nursery tables. It’s mesmerizing! This habit is hurting the future production of our garden. Here’s a simple explanation and helpful tip to correct a common mistake we’ve all made. Do NOT buy the plant with the biggest, showiest blooms. Do NOT buy the tomato plant with cherry tomatoes ripe and ready. Do NOT buy the pepper basket loaded with peppers! That new plant needs all of its reserved energy to survive the transplant shock that is coming and put its best show on in YOUR garden! You are searching for the veggie plant with no fruit yet, you are looking for clusters of tight closed flower buds that haven’t opened yet. You want to look right past that show off plant and buy the shy one!!! The more we know the more we grow! 👏🏻🌿❤️
