In my BRUTALLY HONEST opinion

Growing a garden even more important now!

We are about to start living a new normal. COVID-19 is going to change the produce industry. To ensure you get the best, non-contaminated produce, now is the time to grow your own!

We survived the earthquake Wednesday morning just fine. Luckily, most of our team wasn't in yet. Just Nicole and she is just fine. Watch for Taylor trying to find a suitable place to take cover!

We received an email from one of our favorite garden suppliers, True Leaf Market. For the first time ever, they are overwhelmed with orders because demand has spiked due to COVID-19. Seems like everyone is on the same page. Protect your family and grow your own food.

Not only has True Leaf Market dealt with extra-high demand for its products, but they experienced a 5.7 earthquake on Wednesday, March 18. They were happy to announce that only Taylor, the Warehouse Cat, had an emotional setback from the earthquake. Everyone else was fine. (Watch video.)

“The glory of gardening: hands in the dirt, head in the sun, heart with nature. To nurture a garden is to feed not just on the body, but the soul. ” Alfred Austin, Poet Laureate
