I’m posting this NOW in case any of my friends are considering gardening in the Spring. Where we lived years ago, I had a pretty big veg and flower garden and a lot of room. And when we moved into our condo I had a very small space for it, just pots and a patio. I contacted my friend Jan because I saw she was helping people develop gardens and gardening skills in small spaces. I am so glad I did!! She came over and helped me design a garden for my space and I had no idea I could do so much living in a condo! I attended one of her free classes online just yesterday and she is full of knowledge and new ideas. She is really helping me get organized for this year’s garden and I am so excited! She walks you right through it all whether you are brand new or a seasoned green thumb. With food becoming so (ridiculously) expensive, all of us spending more time at home, and the benefit to our mental health-there is no time like the present to get your hands dirty and start your own garden- ANYWHERE!

Thank you Jan Mallett for getting my raised beds started this spring and refreshed for the fall. Caring for my plants from seed to picking brightens my soul each and every day.
