Step 4: We’ll meet to review and revise the garden plan.
Step 5: We’ll offer hands on help to set up the garden and get your seeds started.
Step 6: We’ll provide ongoing assistance via email, phone and in-person help as needed to help you succeed.
The key to success is having the right mindset.
Gardening is all about problem solving in nature. You should expect unforeseen challenges to arise— these could be pests, bad weather, disease, mistakes, etc. Working with nature can be challenging but also very rewarding. Once you accept that that problem solving is a part of gardening, you will be ready to think critically and find solutions!
Think of gardening as a long term investment. Farmers and gardeners think in terms of seasons. If something doesn’t work this year, you may have to wait a whole year to try it again and it may take several years to finally get something just right. So be patient and accept the slow cycle of seasons— you’ll always have another chance that you can look forward to with gardening!
