How to Get Ready to Fall in Love With Your Garden.
Discovering where your first date with gardening begins.
Have you been thinking about growing some of your own food? Have you started a garden many times but been disappointed?
Whatever your experience or fears, let’s just start over. It’ll be like a first date. More accurately, let’s get you ready for that date.
I’ve been growing my own food for 50 years and teaching others to garden for almost as many. Sometimes I was paid like when I taught gardening and food preservation for Iowa State University.
But mostly, I teach for fun. I love growing plants for all kinds of reasons, but most of my joy comes from growing food.
When I teach others to garden, a sense of peace fills my soul. That’s kinda corny. But it’s true. I love gardening and I love to help others fall in love with gardening.
So let’s begin this journey — your date with gardening. Grab a notebook and a cuppa.
Let’s think about a few things that will help you plant a garden, be it one plant in a container or your entire yard.
