You Want to Create Your Own Edible and Herbal Food Forest... But You’re Overwhelmed? I Hear You.

Let me guess...

You’re excited? Inspired? Maybe even a little obsessed with the idea of creating a beautiful, self-sufficient backyard paradise full of food, herbs, flowers, and MAGIC.

But somewhere between that first Pinterest board and your fifth Google search, the overwhelm hit hard.

Where do I start? What should I plant first? How do I design this? What zone am I even in? How do I NOT mess this up?!

You're not alone.

I hear what so many of you are saying:
“I want this lifestyle so badly—but I’m confused.”
“I keep trying things, but it’s not working.”
“I’m spending so much money and I’m not even sure it’s the right stuff.”
“Everything feels complicated—I just want someone to simplify it!”

And that’s exactly what I’m here to do.
