Feed the soil, not the plant.” That’s the difference between short-term results and a long-term thriving garden ecosystem.

I like to be apart of watching a miracle happen. It never gets old to watch a tiny seed become a huge plant then give you produce you can eat. It's a spiritual experience for me.

I will say as a certified Master Gardener who has been gardening for almost 50 years you two are SMART gardeners and give terrific advice,

When I started gardening my only goal was food production. I couldn't care less about flowers and thought it was a waste of time. Then I planted some and what a game changer. Yes, it makes the pollinators happy but it also really adds something and I did not expect them to make me so happy. Highly recommend. Even just a sunflower or two ❤️

i started gardening to help my dad take care of some pepper plants he got, and the feeling i got from watching something go from a little seedling into a beautiful bush full of delicious peppers was something ive never felt before, and suddenly it was all i could think about. every single time a seed sprouts, or a plant puts on its first flowers, i get that feeling again and its invigorating. while that’s still true, it evolved into wanting to create a paradise for the native creatures in my backyard. sitting in my garden and watching all the life around me thriving in the habitat i helped create. its magical

You two young men - I am gardening about 35 miles north of you (for 25 years now) and I grow TROMBONCINI. Last year I planted more - by mistake- thinking they are cucumbers and they grew and grew and grew and PRODUCED. Even in December! I was afraid they will take over my house! They taste better than zucchini when young and better than butternut squash when more mature AND THEY ARE HUGE!!! And productive. They are really fun to grow. Recommended for new gardeners. I would call them intermediate - between summer and winter squash. Just perfect.
