If you've ever had the desire to learn how to grow an organic garden, even in a raised bed situation but just don't even know where to start, please consider the service I offer to really walk with you through your first season. I grow a TON of food for our family (and used to for many restaurants), but I don't have any heavy equipment outside of our tractor tiller. I do it very old-fashioned, but as efficiently as I can, and if you want to learn how, I'm ready to teach you.
This is my PREMIUM service offering, but I can do any part of it al a carte, and we can work out best pricing for your situation.
Premium service is $250 for all of it.
This includes:
- Site Assessment (garden site selection, soil test info, advice on soil condition and amendments, watering logistics, boundary options, etc. For raised beds, that would include placement advice and how to build the best raised beds and soil recipe.)
- Advice on seed and seedling selections, crop placement, and support devices like trellises, stakes, etc.
- Design of your garden space.
- Starter lesson on organic gardening and how to naturally stay ahead of pests, weeds, and rodents.
- 1 hr on-site hands-on help on planting day
- 1 hr on-site follow up consultation session at time of your choosing (whether that's when garden starts setting fruit or when things get complicated with pests, etc)
- unlimited phone and text accessibility for your questions during growing season.
$150 due at Site Assessment and the rest due at Planting Time.
I want to help people learn how to grow their own food, and to teach THEIR children and grandchildren. Coaching someone through their first garden, all the way through, is time-consuming on top of my busiest time of the year myself, which is why I've chosen the rates I have. I also know that hands-on learning is the best kind. If you want to learn how to grow food organically and make an investment in many years ahead of knowledge, self-sufficiency, and overall absolute joy at eating what you've grown, this is a great and rare offer.
P.S., if you're a single parent with minors in the home, you get a 10% discount off of any of these services.
