When to Call a Gardening Coach
“The Earth is what we all have in common.” Wendell Berry
When might you call in a gardening coach?
- You want help to identify and evaluate the plants on your new property.
- You want to add curb appeal and help beautify the neighbourhood and city.
- You realize your garden has become a jungle, or you now have sun instead of shade, or vice versa.
- You want to add more native plants and pollinators to make your garden vibrant with life.
- You’d like a rock garden or other special garden.
- The garden needs a tune-up, perhaps lacks all season interest.
Any time is good for a consultation. However, different features can be observed at various points in the season. Also, some garden tasks are better done in spring and others later on.

It’s never too early to share the gardening with kids. They love being your helpers.
