Grow fresh veggies all winter long!
During this 5 DAY GARDENING CHALLENGE you will EXPERIENCE:
How to plan your best winter garden ever from scratch in 3 simple steps (we'll hold your hand and do it with you each step of the way). This is great because you'll have our help each step of the way which means you won't have to worry about messing up or creating a plan that just won't work.
Our “Winter L+R vs. Summer S+F” veggie formula to easily know which veggies grow best in the winter vs. the summer. What that means to you is you'll be able to easily choose the best foods to grow in your garden that will thrive even when it is freezing outside.
The #1 critical factor for having a fresh harvest during the winter months. This one thing can make or break your winter garden EVERY single time - it is that important and is really easy to get wrong!
How to create your own planting schedule in just minutes (complete with a checklist of what to do each week). This is great because you'll have a clear plan for your garden which means instead of being overwhelmed you'll know exactly what to do, and when to do it in your garden. No more gardening by the seat of your pants - yeah!!
How to build a “quick hoop” from scratch without breaking your pocketbook. Perhaps one of the EASIEST ways to extend your season even if you live in places like Idaho or Maine.
