Garden Consulting
Do you have questions about your vegetables and flowers? Are you looking for someone to give you advice or diagnose a problem?
In addition to selling produce and cut flowers at the farmers market, I offer in-person and over-the-phone consultations concerning vegetable and cut-flower gardens.​​​
Services Provided
I'll tailor my consultation to your needs. I can provide:
-
designs or redesigns of your space to maximize your yield, create a habitat for pollinators and wildlife, or provide you with the perfect relaxation space.
-
Suggestions on what types of vegetables or flowers you should grow given the environment you are trying to foster.
-
Suggestions on additional structures such as raised beds or hugelkultur
-
Discussions on your soil health or any pest problems you are currently having or ones you would like to prevent.

Let's talk about irrigation! Do you want rain barrels? Drip irrigation? We can consider all of that and I can walk you through the setup.
