I have been a backyard vegetable gardener since 2004, both in upstate NY and here in Wilmington NC. When I moved south in 2017, I was surprised that gardening wasn’t any easier here. It was actually harder. But over the past few years, I have discovered how to not only grow food for my family all summer, but how to harvest healthy organic vegetables from my backyard all year long. I hear my friends and neighbors complain that it’s so difficult to grow anything here, but I know for sure that it doesn’t have to be that way. I started Blue Basil Garden Coaching to help the people in my community learn the tricks and tips that turns this area, despite all it’s humidity and pests and hurricanes, into the perfect place to grow our own vegetables. I would be honored if you would let me be a part of your gardening journey, as we all try to become a little more healthy, a little more self-sufficient, a little closer to nature.
