Who Am I?

Hello! I'm Lex, a passionate gardener who loves nurturing plants and watching them grow. My journey into container gardening started back in 2009, but it really took off in 2019 when my husband and I bought our lovely home on 3.5 acres. Now, my garden is a colorful sanctuary where I grow all sorts of fruits, veggies, and herbs. Whether you're just getting started or have plenty of experience, I’d love for you to join me on this adventure. Let’s share tips, techniques, and the simple joy of harvesting our own homegrown goodies!

From the vibrant tomatoes that ripen under the warm sun to the fragrant basil that adds a touch of magic to any dish, each plant tells its own story. I've experimented with various gardening methods over the years, finding what works best for our soil and climate. Raised beds, vertical gardens, and even hydroponics have all become part of my gardening repertoire.

Along the way, I've learned valuable lessons about patience and persistence. Gardening has taught me to appreciate the small moments—the first sprout breaking through the soil, the bees buzzing happily among the flowers, and the satisfaction of a bountiful harvest. It's a journey filled with surprises and rewards, and I’m excited to share it with you.

Whether you're looking for advice on pest control, tips for extending your growing season, or inspiration for your next garden project, you'll find a welcoming community here. Together, we can enjoy the fulfillment that comes from nurturing our gardens and savoring the fruits of our labor. Let's dig in and cultivate a love for gardening that will flourish for years to come!
