About this course
Learn to grow real food and flowers the way experienced gardeners actually do it: site first, soil second, plants third. You will read your sunlight and frost dates, build or fill a raised bed or containers with a proven soil mix, start seeds and transplant on schedule, water and feed correctly, and manage common pests without panic. By the end of one growing season you can plan, plant, and harvest vegetables, herbs, and flowers and know exactly what to do next year.
