The Leftover Garden
Every year mid-June I am faced with a dilemma. I have a few leftover plants that were dug up in the planting process in early spring: a few perennials without a home, a few vegetables left in a 6 pack, a few flowers that did not work out where I expected. I have started putting [...]
Recycle A Car and Save Landfill Space
Last summer while I am driving through Indiana I have the windows open and the sweet smell of corn field drifts into the window. I come upon this old beater car parked along the roadside in middle of a field of clover. I pull over and take photos and I am fascinated by the car and [...]
A Gift of Aloe – Aloe Humili ‘Andhogp’ Spineless Hedgehog
Every year at the beginning of the season I try to find a unique little plant gift I can give visitors that come to visit my garden. Sometimes I give them my book, sometimes I dig up and split perennials, and last season I planted Aloe plants in little clay pots and lined my front [...]

A Bride In My Garden and Love In My Heart
One day last summer I had a knock on my front door a few days before I left for an out of state speaking engagement. There in front of me was a smiling woman I had never met before. She said, “You don’t know me, but we love your garden. We see it growing every day. [...]
What Is The Difference Between Organic, Heirloom, Hybrid, and GMO?
Sometimes the massive amount of labeling and non-GMO-labeling and plants and seeds and EVERYTHING in the green shopping market is one giant hot mess. Some mad scientist has opened up a can o’ whoopass on us throwing in a drama cocktail which has all the subtlety of a reality tv show like Hell’s Kitchen combined [...]
Blessed By A Shaman and Rappelling Through Flying Bats Into 40 Foot Deep Cave Water
There are times in your life when you touch nature in such an overwhelming and amazing way that it silences you. While I was in Mexico I took an eco-tour deep into the jungle. We toured an amazing Mayan community known as Pacchen. Watch the video and see how our guide introduced us to the Mayan [...]
