Coaching for Gardeners
1:1 Support that grows with you
Tired of Guessing What Your Garden Really Needs?
You’ve got a garden—or you’re just starting one—and you’re ready for real answers, not a dozen possibilities from a Google search.
You want to know your plants are healthy and will actually produce a great harvest this year.
You want to stop wasting time trying to fix problems and start enjoying fresh veggies on your table.
You want clear, easy tips from someone local who understands your garden and your goals.
That’s where my garden coaching comes in
Whether you're just getting started or trying to grow more with what you’ve got, I’ll work alongside you in your garden to give you simple steps, a care plan, and the seasonal know-how to keep you one step ahead—without wasting time on trial-and-error.
Is Coaching for You?
Coaching is perfect if:
You’ve recently installed a raised bed garden (with me or on your own)
You’re unsure how to care for your plants, when to harvest, or how to handle pests naturally
