Tree Canopy
Founder & Editor

My grandmother’s garden in New Mexico was my first classroom, where I learned that patience and a little dirt under your nails are the real ingredients for success.
This site is my way of paying that forward: practical tips, hard-won lessons, and the kind of advice I wish I’d had when I first tried to coax life out of a sunbaked patch of earth.
