We’ll be covering all things seeds, soils, sustainability, and much more.

    I love garden teaching.
    For sure, my boat natural classroom.
    I have eventually bored them out of their trees, though. They’re mostly teenagers now. The garden is now my quiet place. But they’ve still learned so much. And learn by watching.
