Education: Growing knowledge, one garden at a time
My love of learning in the garden eventually led me to formal study, earning a Certificate in Horticulture from the University of Guelph. That education deepened my understanding of plant science, soil systems, garden designs and sustainable practices – knowledge I love to share with others.
Education is the heart of From My Garden because I believe:
- Gardening becomes more rewarding when we understand why and how things work
- Knowledge empowers gardeners to make sustainable, confident choices
- Learning is lifelong process, just like gardening itself
Whether through articles I write on gardens, presentations I give or conversations with people at community events, my goal is to make horticulture accessible, inspiring and practical for gardeners of all experience levels.

‘Do you think you can garden?
‘More to the point, do I think I can garden? Well, I would like to think so but sometimes the weather, diseases, bugs and other obstacles try to block my efforts. If I don’t succeed, I certainly learn from these experiences, and to write and share with others about my garden is another wonderful garden adventure.”
