Create the Veg-to-Table Experience You’ve Always Wanted
Even if you don’t have a green thumb.
I believe the world needs more vegetable gardens.
I’m here to share my gardening journey so you too can…
Eat healthier foods without harmful chemicals or pesticides.
Eat better-tasting foods because that supermarket stuff was picked way too early.
Improve your health by eating fresh, natural vegetables you grew yourself.
Save money on skyrocketing food costs fueled by inflation and climate change.
Reduce your carbon footprint by buying fewer packaged goods that were transported halfway across the world.
Here’s to eating in season, returning to your roots, and building a better life for you and your family - starting with the food that fuels you.

Hi, I’m Cole.
When my wife and I bought our house, I had a barren landscape to work with. I knew that I wanted to build a suburban garden, but doing so came with a steep learning curve.
I murdered more vegetables than I can count. I fed the wildlife more than I fed our family. I drowned more peppers than I care to share. And ultimately, I wasted a lot of money on things I didn’t need while figuring it all out.
Today, we grow a lot of our daily food on less than a quarter acre. We have food to share with family and my children will always have fond memories of gardening with dad.
I started this site to share my vegetable gardening journey so that you too can experience the joy of growing your own food - even if you don’t have a green thumb.
