30-Minute "Growing Veggies" Consult
20
There are many people who love the idea of being more self-sufficient and growing their own food, but don't know where to start. I might be able to help...
I will spend 30 minutes with you over Skype, FaceTime, etc and help you start a plan to grow some of your own veggies in your backyard or on your apartment patio. We'll discuss your available space, the sorts of aspirations you have and the resources you have available and make a custom plan, just for you. Follow-up sessions are welcome and encouraged as you progress through your season--there's no reason you need to do this alone.
This session is meant for someone with little or no experience; other, more technical, consulting can be found elsewhere.
Training & Qualifications
I run an historic site that has a strong focus on agriculture; we grow many varieties of fruit, veggie and ornamental plants here both for our personal use as well as for the restaurant that is part of the site. I'm not an expert, but a very enthusiastic amateur who remembers what it's like to get started, even if I'm now growing more than half an acre of amazing veggies. I love sharing my passion and am sure I can be both helpful and motivating to you.
Availability & Preferences
At this time of year, I can be quite flexible; by summer the days get filled up with the business of running the amazing place I'm responsible for.
