Herbs are some of the most forgiving, beginner-friendly plants you can grow. They don’t need much space, they thrive in containers or raised beds, and most are naturally pest-resistant. Plus, herbs can be both culinary powerhouses and natural remedies!
A raised bed can help you control the soil mix and quality, are less prone to weed invasion, are easier to keep pests out of, give you an earlier start in spring and lasts longer into fall, and are easier on your body with less bending and kneeling. Yes!
A perennial flower garden isn’t just about plants—it’s about creating a living, breathing space that brings you joy year after year. Whether you have a sprawling backyard or a cozy front yard bed, perennials offer beauty, resilience, and a lasting connection to nature.
Think of mulching as part of your garden’s self-care routine. It’s not a flashy step, but it lays the groundwork — literally — for healthier plants, easier maintenance, and more beauty with less effort. And over time, your soil will become richer, looser, and more full of life.
Healthy soil is the foundation of successful gardening, and compost is one of the best ways to enrich and maintain it. Whether you’re a beginner gardener or someone interested in nurturing plants, understanding composting and its impact on soil health is essential.
