Grow the Garden
You've Always Wanted

I believe that health and joy are the foundations of life, and that organic gardening is a way everyone can experience them. Whether I design and install a space in your yard with my crew, teach you through my online course, or just inspire your thumb to become a little greener ...
This community is for you.

I've worked on every kind of farm in the book to learn how to grow food. When my farm dream found me, I ran headlong into it and am here to share what I'm growing with you. I'm a beach kid turned homestead mama and you have a place at my table.

Plants are
kinda my thing.
And I always
have a dirt
manicure.
