200 years ago, most people lived on farms and produced their own food to eat. Today, less than 2% of people in the US produce food or know the basics of how to. Are you ready for the next wave of food shortages and natural disasters?
If you…
- Are passionate about growing your own food and ready to start your backyard homestead,
- Have tried gardening already, and can’t seem to make things grow right,
- Are tired of watching endless YouTube videos and want to be confident in your decisions of what seeds to buy, and what actually grows best in your area,
…then join Horticulturist & 15 year Homesteader & Organic Gardener Mary Andrews to learn how to create a holistic garden without wasting your energy, effort and time.
