Don’t Get Me Started!

I garden in a 10’x10′ community garden plot in the near northwest side of Chicago & I’ve been with the garden for over 5 years.

I didn’t have the traditional yard or space to plant huge vegetables. I had a lot of questions about what I could do with the space to make the most out of it, but there wasn’t one place where I could look for relevant information. My goal is to make a site that provides useful information – where other people who are starting to explore small space or urban gardening can find information and inspiration.

I frequently get asked for advice from friends and family – so I’ve developed fairly strong opinions and Go-To resources to help me into, through, and after the growing season. I know they can’t be alone. I’ve also had to learn how to store and preserve small batches of food using fermentation, canning, and drying.
