Garden Up Green

Garden Up Green is a combination of my story and retired blog that was published from 2014 - 2020. I went from growing a garden in the ground on our family farm to raising food and flowers in raised beds with great success. During this process I discovered a positive way to live and implemented many tips that my grandmother shared with me when I was younger. I found helping others do the same was an encouraging experience. Inside this book, I walk you through how to establish a raised bed garden without all the headache while unpacking how to maintain a growing space through the seasons. I have provided you with the most simplistic methods you will ever come across. These methods are the foundation of gardening and have worked for generations. They are not complicated to learn and you will quickly discover your likes and dislikes. This insight will allow you to tailor a garden that fits your lifestyle without skipping the important steps.From growing food you love to eat and fresh herbs I also cover the benefit of adding flowers to welcome the pollinators. No garden is complete without a list of DIY projects and I built many during those blogging years. I have brought forward the most popular in addition to a few new ones you will want to implement. It is my hope this garden book is one you will use as a beneficial resource and treasure as an easy-to-use for years to come. Read more
