This taste of spring weather has officially spoiled us. If you’ve already started mentally rearranging your backyard, browsing seed catalogs, or convincing yourself this is the year you finally “do it right,” I’ve got something for you.
Before you buy a single tool or carton of seedlings, consider starting with intention.
Goals in the Garden is a beginner-friendly, hands-on workshop designed to help you build clarity before you build raised beds. The premise is simple: gardening success doesn’t start with plants—it starts with realistic goals that align with your time, energy, and actual life.
Held in an intimate teaching garden setting, this small-group workshop focuses on reflection, practical planning, and creating a flexible garden plan that works beyond the first burst of enthusiasm.
