Garden Coaching
A real local expert giving you the boost you need
Garden coaching from someone who has been there.
For everyone just starting out or looking to scale your produce garden to the next level and everything in between.
Produce like crazy this year
More tomatoes per plant, peppers bursting with flavor, fresh and crisp greens, herbs that can be cut all season long, crunch cabbages and dense broccoli. All this can be yours this year in the garden with the right planning and prep work.
I have been professionally growing organic produce in the Dayton area for over 12 years. My gardens are my livelihood and I feed hundreds of families each year from less than an acre of land. I want to share my expertise with you and answer all your burning questions to make this next growing season your very best!
Everything that slows us down and forces patience, everything that sets us back into the slow circles of nature, is a help. Gardening is an instrument of grace.
