Honest Food Garden is the home of practical, honest food gardening for real people. This blog complements my YouTube channel, which shares the same name.
Here and on YouTube, I share my garden journey, including ways to grow food with real-life restrictions, such as limited money, space, and energy. I don’t want my physical challenges to stop me from gardening, so I’m exploring how to do things differently, including a more accessible garden design with raised beds that I hope will also keep the groundhogs from eating the garden plants! I’ll share honest reviews of what works and what does not.
Who am I? I’m a 60+ year-old human, lifelong entrepreneur, former book publisher, and currently in my third year as a high school Business teacher. I’d rather teach gardening, so here I am! My garden is in Northern Illinois, zone 5b.
