Description

​@jacquesinthegarden started a garden in the pandemic for under $1,000 and a TON of sweat equity. Today, almost 6 years later, he harvests 90% of the produce for his family of 6 from it.

The smartest thing Jacque ever did was message Kevin like a stalker lol Luckily Kevin has a heart of gold and took him under his wing. The funny thing is, during the baby food shortage of 2022, I was holding my newborn baby girl with one arms and with the other I was clicking around Amazon for solutions to growing food on the porch of a small apartment. I discovered grow bags and from that point on, I have been growing more and more food each year. With the help of your content, your seed shop, and Epic seed starting trays, I expect to grow even more food again this year. My daughter is now a legit "Produce Princess" eating up everything I can grow in my PNW Porch Garden from Strawberries to Peas to Cucumbers to Rare PNW watermelon.
