023. How To Have A Tiny But Mighty Farm with Jill Ragan

Jill Ragan joins us today with the good word on farming in a tiny but mighty space. She tells us her story of starting a farm from scratch with no experience farming or gardening at scale and going from market farmer to flower farmer to educator, and now author. She gardens year-round and talks about how she stewards herself as a gardener as well as seeks to educate others on their journey in growing. Jill's book, The Tiny But Mighty Farm is a great resource for anyone wanting to grow in a small space with maximum yield.  Some other books mentioned:  The New Organic Grower by Elliot Coleman The Lean Farm by Ben Hartman The First Time Gardener:Growing Vegetables by Jessica Sowards   For more info on Bailey visit www.baileyvantassel.com Check out Bailey's monthly gardening membership to keep you on track no matter what US Hardiness zone you are in at www.thekitchengardensociety.com

The Garden Culture Podcast is more than just a how-to garden podcast, this is a place where we let the garden inspire our lives, as well as get to know incredible people who infuse their own lives with the magic of nature and gardening. Follow along as we talk about what to do in the garden each month and interview interesting people who weave gardening into their lives. Our host, Bailey Van Tassel, is a home gardener and the founder of a national gardening club. Her goal is to get more people gardening, especially in suburbia and small spaces, as she has. Bailey's mission is to make gardening an American pastime and a part of our innate culture. Her hope is to have more families raise their kids with a reverence for nature and an instinct for growing their own food and flowers.
