This 6-part live virtual garden camp is hosted by 

2 award-winning veteran horticulturists.

One Size Doesn't Fit All

What style of growing works for you?

Agree or disagree?

When writing our book No Guff Vegetable Gardening, we agreed to disagree.

We were friends. So we were polite about our disagreements.

Our different styles showed up in our book as "he says" and "she says."

There's more than one way to garden. Some advice won't suit you.

To celebrate the 10th anniversary of our book (and of disagreeing!) we have a live 6-week virtual garden camp to help you pick gardening ideas and techniques that suit YOUR situation.
