This is an 8 week Email course that will effortlessly land in your email inbox each week.

Food sure is getting expensive to buy at the supermarket. And, I’m talking about the conventional food prices in particular, though I don’t buy much of that stuff. Are you getting  concerned about the health and environmental impacts of petroleum, synthetic chemical and GMO based conventional farming? What about your access to fresh, healthy food?
Thought about growing your own nutritious organic food but need some guidance from someone who has done it for years? It doesn’t really matter where you live or if you have a green thumb. You will learn how to grow in the ground, in pots on a sunny deck, or on a sunny windowsill. You’ll even learn how to grow some organic sprouts. This information packed 8 week course (with “how to” videos and pictures) is for those who are creating their first garden or have had mixed success growing in the past. You’ll learn how to plan, plant, maintain, harvest and prepare  your homegrown vegetables and herbs. And, with my 20+ year green living background, I just can’t help but include some useful tips related to organic food. Not only will you become a gardener, you’ll also become more food savvy. It’ll be better food than money can buy.Save money, improve your food’s nutritional value, reconnect with nature, and increase your food security by growing your own. You will also delight your senses, get some fresh air and vitamin D producing sunshine, and impress your family and friends with your harvest as well as your new knowledge. And, have a lot of fun.

Why Am I Teaching This Course?
In addition to my 20+ year background as a green living expert, three years ago I graduated from backyard organic gardener who grew on plots of land, sunny decks, and windowsills (depending on where I was living at the time), to commercial grower on my boyfriend’s certified organic farm in the Mad River Valley of Vermont. Last season I started a successful cut flower business- Amy’s Organic Flowers. I sold creative, Vermont country style bouquets at the farmer’s market, farm stand, through a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture), and for weddings and special events.
