Gardening is additive. I started with a couple of totes. They just keep spreading out to different areas of my yard. If I keep going I will have a food forest in totes. Because of my age (72) and my health, I can't plant in the ground. I can sit in a chair and watch my veggies and now flowers grow to attract critters.
How cute! Blessings 🥰👏🏼🙌🏼🙏🏼
I started my garden a year ago, I am living off my garden throughout the year now. I cannot think of anything else that can help me with more physical, mental health, bring joy and satisfaction in life!
You are such a good teacher!
Wow, thank you!
OMG! Angela, I am living prove of how gardening 👩🏻🌾 helps you mentally. I went from a label of anxiety that brought me to panic attack to cero panic attacks…With out medication. I have learned a lot in two years…Thanks 🙏🏼 for sharing your knowledge ✨🙌🏼🥰. I am sharing my videos in TH-cam, but in Spanish 😁
This makes me feel so good! I've been getting a wee bit burnt out. I LOVE my garden but I'm so so so tired! So anyway, this was just the pep talk I needed. Thank you. Watching your videos is like chatting with a friend. I always feel uplifted and validated in this endeavor. Thank you!
Life begins in the garden! Thanks for all your information! I love your garden!
Yes! Thank you!
I have another one for you: reconnects us to the land on which we live. Our ancestors were intimately familiar with sunrise, sunset, seasons, rains, etc. Modern life has disconnected us from all of that - I don’t care when the sun rises or sets because I have electricity; inside my house is temperature controlled so I have no idea how hot or cold it is until I go outside; etc. But gardening means I now have to be aware of the rhythms of the earth if I want success. Example: Planting zucchini outside in November - with the earth rhythms or no? Well, if I’m in Peru or Australia the answer will be different than if I’m in the US or Italy. And being aware of this for my garden has me looking at the other plants in my life with new appreciation.
Very good video. People need to realize how the food supply chain is being destroyed and we all need to learn to feed ourselves thru our gardens. Communities working together helps this too. Think of having chickens for eggs and meat also.
You said all !
I love my garden and always looking forward to learn to grow more and more !
God bless.
Thank you Angela! I am starting a small garden in my 10x20 ft patio, and plan on herbs and a couple tomato plants! I am so excited, that I made a plan on paper of what to plant and where! And you have inspired me further. Thank you!
All these reasons resonate with me.
Thanks for sharing your garden and experience with us. I wish I had a bigger backyard to grow
I love this video. Thank you!
We live in the high desert, Prescott. Gardening is a real challenge here on our hillside. The watering grids that I first saw on your channel are a life saver. We water more efficiently, saving time, energy and money. Plants are happier too. You have given many helpful hints that I truly appreciate. Gardening keeps us (my husband and me) healthier, happier and better fed. A little time spent in the fresh air with growing things makes for a more positive and happy day. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and advice. Blessings to you.
I agree with you. I love to garden, but many years I haven't been able to garden. But last year and so far this year I have started back gardening. I love every minute I'm out there. I love raising my own food, therefore I know where it's coming from and also it helps to cut the cost of buying food.
wonderful video! 100% agree
Totally agree!! Thank u
Mam,Excellent video,lot to learn
Awesome thanks for sharing
I have a kitchen garden. I grow some vegetable, your video is amazing, Good luck💯💯💚💚💚💚
Great thank you for sharing...
Thank you for the encouragement 🙏
You are so welcome
Well said! More power to you.
So inspiring!
I bought a bunch of seeds for next year, depending on what's going to happen. But this is my first time, and I have been regrowing carrot's, Romaine, yellow and red bell, celery , garlic, green onion, yellow onion, from store. So far they are growing beautifully. I have been doing herbs also, they are beautiful, so proud. 😁 So this is all a learning process for now, hopefully I will learn quickly, but I'm growing in pots, going to start potatoes tomorrow.
Lucky you, I have been gardening, and for now somehow it's been a struggle ( which I have enjoyed)
Love your channel. Your book is great. I am learning so much.
Awesome! Thank you!

Thank You for your wonderful videos. I have been experimenting with hydroponics for a year or so and now I have ventured out to the backyard. Starting a 2’ x 6’ above ground fall garden. Nervous and excited. Bought your calendar so I am eager to get started.
Best of luck to you!
Making Me Hungry...
Nice video mam.
I can't grow many zucchini. I find I do even get female zucchini when it's too hot. However, my eggplant are so productive... so moussaka plus eggplant "meatballs" instead of zucchini gets me by. Snakes just took my last female duck & chicken. So... other than eggs, I'm going pretty well, I think
What lettuce are you growing? Will it survive our heat? At 0:59.
That was from last fall/winter - not current lettuce. Too hot for lettuce now, you're right.
What do you use for mulch in your raised beds?
I use the woodchip mulch from Arizona Worm Farm in my pathways and mulch in my beds.
What are those black tubes in your garden bed and how can I get them?
I use the watering grids from Garden in Minutes shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=1897453&u=2736599&m=118440&urllink=&afftrack= Use code Angela10 to save $10 off $100
Can we grow Rhubarb here in the Phx. area?
No
Do you give online classes?
Yes, I teach a live, monthly online class through Patreon: www.patreon.com/growinginthegarden
Hi, are ants something o need to worry about I noticed there are some in my pumpkin and sunflowers 🌻
Not really, (especially in small amounts) they are also pollinators.
What can I do with my leftover sweet potato slips?
Offer them to friends and family.
I have a question what do you do about ants
Small numbers they are not a problem. Fire ants can be an issue in some areas.
Hi there I just found your channel today! I'm a wife and mom of six homesteader in top northwestern or Arizona in the high desert and we have relentless harvester ants that wiped out our entire winter garden. Nothing we tried whatsoever worked to keep them away except for they seem to avoid a well sealed above ground metal garden tub that is open on the bottom as long as it doesn't have open sides. We don't have a big budget so can't afford tons of metal above ground gardens! I need advice regarding how do you plant so many above ground planners like you do and keep the harvester ants away? Also, do you have about 50% shade in your garden?
Ants aren't a huge issue here. I do shade parts of the garden with 50% shade cloth. Some I don't shade at all.
Love you channel and I'd love that you do square foot gardening. I was wondering I do have Mel's book but I was wondering if you have any plans on you know growing summer vegetables I'm trying to get in more tomatoes and cucumbers and peppers and an eggplants but I was having problems trying to figure out how I can cram in some zucchinis and summer squashes do you have any plans that you have on your website or your blog
Plants need plenty of room to grow - don't overcrowd them. growinginthegarden.com/plant-spacing-in-square-foot-gardens/
Warning!!! Gardening is addictive and hard to reverse.
I like your videos. Nice women 😜
