Our Vision
To help you, the DIY gardener, with useful tips about gardening, landscape design, and yard maintenance with an emphasis on the WHY behind it all.
Our Story
Throughout the past 20 years, it seemed most everyone had a home gardening question for one of us. With a background in horticulture, gardening, landscape, and teaching, we wondered if we could make a difference by educating others about their gardens and yards. We realized the need was there which we could provide. Podcasting sounded like an interesting, new challenge, and ta-da...Spoken Garden, the podcast was created. Three months later, Spoken Garden expanded to include a website with a blog.
