Introducing: You Don’t Have a Black Thumb
An intro to gardening and growing book
We are excited to share something new!
For several months, I’ve been working on a short, easy-to-read book that answers the comment I receive every cut flower season: “I wish I could grow plants like you.”
The truth is, folks, I kill a lot of plants. BUT I also grow a lot of plants. I stare in disdain at the weeds that take over a pathway but I also harvest beautiful, luscious, sweet-smelling bouquets.
The point is, I don’t have it all figured out, but I’ve learned so much through the experience of growing. And I want YOU to enjoy that experience, too.
If you’ve been afraid, unsure, or confused about how to start your gardening and growing journey, then this book is for you.
