Welcome to the gardening column at The Untrained Housewife! Our garden writers are here to help you succeed from the ground up. So, whether you’re a new gardener just digging your feet into the dirt or have been gardening your whole life, our garden writers are here to share, guide, and cheer you on.
From flowers, vegetables, fruits, herbs, trees, and shrubs — we’ve got something to say about all of them. On behalf of all of us here at The Untrained Housewife, we want you to know that we love when readers participate in the conversation and encourage you to share any gardening advice (or questions) that you have with all of us. We also hope to keep you around by inviting you to join on the forums.
Thanks for stopping by our gardens,
Chris
