Beginning a garden is exciting! We want to think about all the ways it will look and feel in August. We all feel SO ready to get out and enjoy nature, BUT before we begin let's make sure we begin on the right foot. Today in this episode I will be sharing my top things to think about when choosing where to place your garden AND whether to go in-ground or raised beds or even containers. It's a lot to think about, but I help with some quick ideas as well as discussing how I personally have navigated and learned about these things myself.

Here is everything I reference in the podcast and a little more to help you in deciding how to begin.
