I Started Out with Mud
Our first suburban garden started with nothing but heavy, red clay soil that held water like a pottery jug.
When my mom came to visit and help with planting one year, she nearly drowned my seedlings because she didn't realize how slowly our soil drained.
Over the years, we added raised beds and plenty of compost, and turned our mess of mud and weeds into a beautiful, productive garden.

What's Inside
From Abandoned Pasture to Gorgeous Garden
About 16 years ago, we moved out to the country - and started all over again.
The soil was better, but it was covered in thick grass nearly as tall as me! The winds we'd been protected from in the suburbs blasted full force, and we often dealt with too much or too little rain.
Over the years, we've turned an abandoned cow pasture into an oasis humming with life. You can transform your yard, too!
