There are lots of gardening books and information out there. Couldn’t I just learn this all by reading?
There is a plethora of garden information out there. One common complaint I hear from gardeners in my community is that the information is often contradictory, confusing, and overwhelming to them. I’ve been experimenting with cold weather gardening for the last few years and I know what works and what doesn’t. You don’t need to read a pile of gardening books – I’ve distilled the information down to the essentials for you!
Tell me more about the video series.
This series is designed so you can watch it at your own pace, at a time that works for you. When you purchase the class you’ll create a login and password to use every time you want to watch the videos. They’re stored on a website that’s easy to access and use.
Once you log in you’ll see a screen which lists all of the lessons for the class. You can work through them in order, or skip around if there are ones you’d like to watch over again. You can watch at your own pace whenever it fits into your schedule.
Will you answer my questions if I have some while taking the class?
Yes! I’m invested in your success and really want you to experience how awesome it is to grow veggies in the cold weather. You can join a Facebook group I run for gardeners all over the world and post your questions there, or leave a question in the website that houses the videos and I’ll respond to you.
What’s the best time to start a cold weather garden?
In Madison, WI, I start planting my winter garden in July and end in September. Throughout September-December, I’m constructing my low tunnels and cold frames, harvesting from my garden, and enjoying the fruits of my labor. I usually start planting and harvesting again in early March as I set up my early spring garden and enjoy the food from last year’s fall garden.
What gardening zones is the class best for?
I’ve been gardening successfully in the cold weather months for several years in Wisconsin, zone 5a. If you live in zones 3-7 this class would be a great fit for you.
I don’t know if I have time for a class.
Over and over again people in our community have told me that the classes and books they’re purchased through my website have saved them time loads of time and led to greater successes. Why? Because I focus on giving you a clear plan to get started. Everything in my classes is practical, realistic, and actionable. I’ve boiled it all down to just the essentials you need to know, no fluff!
And think about this – spending less than an hour watching videos, creating a personalized calendar, and ordering seeds will help you grow more food for more months of the year, save you money at the grocery store this fall, and help you eat healthy, organic food right from your yard into the cold weather months. You’ll also stop wasting so much time on fruitless internet searches that yield conflicting information.
