While I've been puttering in the dirt for as long as I can remember, I started gardening for others in 2019.

Gardening & homesteading should be fun, not an endless grind of weeding,
crop failure, and livestock lost to predators.
I can help you plan efficient systems for organic weed control, gardens & livestock fencing, and irrigation.

Feeling overwhelmed by the endless catalogs and websites?
I can help you shop for the seeds, plants, fences, canning equipment, vet supplies, and myriad other items you'll need for homesteading (and avoid the ones you don't!)

The Garden Goddess loves native plants! Natives are hardy, beautiful, and perfectly suited to your climate.
They provide forage for pollinators, and food and shelter for larger animals.
I can help you choose the right natives for your site,
by considering shade, soil type, drainage, desired height, and function.
