Improving your health through gardening starts with understanding your space. The first step is creating a microclimate map of your property. This helps you identify where sunlight, shade, wind, and water naturally occur—so you can choose the right plants for the right places. It’s not just about growing food; it’s about growing smart.
Next, take a look at your lifestyle. What’s easiest for you to maintain? How close is your garden to your daily routine? Successful gardening follows three simple steps:
1️⃣ Healthy Soil – Choose the right location and build nutrient-rich soil.
2️⃣ Healthy Starts – Use plant starts to avoid confusion between seedlings and weeds.
3️⃣ Healthy Routine – Set a schedule that works for you, or consider hiring a garden coach to stay on track.
It’s tempting to dive in and plant everything at once—but that leads to what we call binge gardening. Instead, start small and build a routine that fits your life. Gardening should nourish you, not overwhelm you.
