Growing Up Gardening with Sam Niemann

In this episode, Janey chats with lifelong gardener Sam Niemann. Sam’s love for gardening started early - he’d sneak out to visit the local garden center and would read every horticulture book he could get his hands on cover-to-cover. At 14, when he wasn’t hired at his local garden center because they doubted his expertise, Sam just started helping customers on his own! Tune in to hear how it all worked out and how his love of gardening continued to shape his future career and the creation of Bleume. Bleume is a houseplant fertilizer and was started with the goal of bringing the joy of houseplants to everyone and will be released this fall!  Sam is a lifelong gardener whose passion for plants and nature has been the driving force behind his extensive knowledge and expertise in horticulture. Sam is the founder of Grown by Design, a Chicago-based landscape design firm and Bleume, a high-quality home and gardening brand aimed at inspiring people to connect with nature.For more about Sam and Bleume: https://growbleume.com/https://grownbydesign.com/ https://www.instagram.com/growbleume/Love what you’re hearing?Make sure to check out more from Janey:StoreFacebookInstagramYouTubeDig, Plant, Water, Repeat is produced in association with Caloroga Shark Media.
