    Ep 127 | A Tale of Two Gardeners: Same Beginning. Different Ending

    Two gardeners. The same nursery. The same tomato plants. The same dream of fresh vegetables, flowers on the table, and a garden they couldn’t wait to walk through each morning. By spring, you couldn’t tell their gardens apart. By fall, they couldn’t have been more different. What changed? It wasn’t the weather. It wasn’t the soil. It wasn’t talent. And it wasn’t luck. In this episode, we’re exploring the quiet decisions that shape an entire gardening season, and, if we’re honest, the quiet decisions that shape our lives. Because the greatest difference between these two gardeners happened long before the first seed was planted. It began with purpose. If you’ve ever found yourself chasing gardening advice, feeling overwhelmed by all the opinions, or wondering why your garden never quite becomes what you imagined, this conversation is for you. This isn’t just about growing vegetables. It’s about growing a life.   In this episode, we’ll explore: Why most gardeners don’t fail because they lack knowledge. The hidden cost of gardening without a destination. How one simple question can change every decision you make this season. Why your garden goal has very little to do with growing bigger vegetables. How to stop growing everything and start growing what matters most.   A question to carry with you:   If your garden could give you one thing this season, what would you hope it would be? Not just a harvest. Not just tomatoes. But something deeper. Peace. Connection. Generosity. Confidence. Joy. Because once you know the answer… you finally know where to begin.   Ready to Discover Your Own Garden Goal?   Grow Gather Give is a live guided workshop designed to help you uncover what matters most this season and create a simple, intentional plan to build your garden around it. Because the best gardens don’t ever happen by accident. They grow from purpose. Until next time… Keep growing what matters most.   👉🏼 JOIN my goal setting workshop GROW GATHER GIVE Here   Connect With Wild Child Kitchen Gardens   Facebook: @WildChildKitchenGardens Instagram: @wildchildkitchengardens YouTube: @Wild Child Kitchen Gardens Learn more about growing with me at www.releaseyourinnerwildchild.com

    Ep 125 | Quitting While You're Ahead: The Skill Every Good Gardener Masters

    One of the hardest gardening skills to learn isn't planting, pruning, feeding, or pest control.  It's knowing when to quit.  Knowing when things are done!! This time of year, you may find yourself holding onto plants that have already served their purpose. The tomatoes are slowing down. The cucumbers are struggling. The squash is hanging on by a thread. And yet, we keep watering, feeding, spraying, and hoping. In this episode, we're talking about the gardening skill nobody teaches: knowing when a plant's season is complete. We'll discuss why we struggle to let go, how to avoid making decisions based on a single symptom, and why your September garden depends on the choices you're making right now.     In This Episode You'll Learn: Why gardeners often confuse letting go with failure The danger of making decisions based on a single leaf, comment, or diagnosis How observation differs from reaction Three signs that a plant may have already served its purpose The hidden cost of holding onto struggling plants How today's decisions shape your September garden Why successful gardeners know when to quit while they're ahead   Resources Mentioned In This Episode Do-Over Decisions Masterclass If you're wondering whether a bed should be refreshed, replanted, or reset, join us for the Do-Over Decisions Masterclass.  Together we'll walk through the three decisions every gardener faces this time of year and help you determine exactly what every bed in your garden needs next. 👉🏼 Join the Do-Over Decisions Masterclass HERE     Connect With Wild Child Kitchen Gardens   Facebook: @WildChildKitchenGardens Instagram: @wildchildkitchengardens YouTube: @Wild Child Kitchen Gardens Learn more about growing with me at www.releaseyourinnerwildchild.com

    Ep 124 | What I'm Planting For The Do-Over Season

    It's easy to look at the summer garden and think the best days are behind you.  The tomatoes are slowing down. The heat is settling in. Some beds are thriving while others are looking tired. You may even be dreaming about fall and telling yourself that you'll deal with the garden later. But here's the truth: The September garden you want is being built right now. In this episode, we're talking about the decisions that shape your garden's future. Because September doesn't magically arrive with a productive, beautiful garden waiting for you. The harvests, flowers, herbs, healthy soil, and cool-season success you're hoping for all begin with the choices you make today. Whether your beds need a refresh, a replant, or a complete reset, this episode will help you stop focusing on what's ending and start focusing on what's possible.   In This Episode You'll Learn:   Why waiting until fall may be costing you the garden you really want The three decisions every garden bed needs right now: Refresh, Replant, or Reset How to create a vision for your September garden before making summer decisions What crops are still thriving and producing during the Do-Over Season Heat-loving vegetables, herbs, and flowers you can still plant now Why momentum matters more than perfection when it comes to gardening success How today's choices impact your fall harvests   Resources Mentioned In This Episode: Download the June Garden To Table Guide for the lists I went over today and more of what we are planting, picking, and serving on our table this month!            👉🏻 Download the Garden To Table Guide HERE!
