How I Got Started

During the pandemic, the last local grocery store in my neighborhood closed with less than a week’s notice. I decided to start growing some of my own food since there was no longer easy access to fresh produce. I started small – tomatoes, peppers, and cucumbers.

After hearing that adding flowers to the garden could increase the amount of veggies I could grow, I started adding them in where I could. Soon, I was growing MORE flowers than vegetables! With help from family (and several loads of mulch and compost later) my growing space quickly took over my backyard. 

In 2024, my family had the opportunity to move to a more rural area, in the heart of Central Texas. I joined them in 2025, and I’m currently in the process of moving my farm!
