Garden Coaches in Your Zone
Gardening Belongs to Local Communities!
There is so much information online about what to do in your garden, and it can get really confusing while trying to learn a new skill! For some things, like when to plant certain veggies, following along with someone in a completely different growing zone is a recipe for failure. Connecting with experts in your area and growing zone is the best way to learn! Experts in your area will be more familiar with your local climate, common pests in your area, and how to garden in your zone for the best results.
We get lots of questions from folks all over, so we have complied a list of experts across the US to connect you with for accurate information.
