Hi! I’m Erica, a beginner gardener with a passion for growing my own food and learning as I go. I grew up helping my Nonni and Nonno in their gardens so I guess you can say I’ve learned a few things along the way. With the recent rising cost of groceries, I decided to take gardening more seriously, focusing on both traditional and small-space gardening techniques. My goal is to share budget-friendly gardening tips, easy DIY projects and honest product reviews to help others grow fresh food at home, without necessarily breaking the bank!

I started this blog as a way to document my journey, from successes to lessons, and to connect with fellow gardeners who are also figuring things out along the way. Whether you have a big backyard or just a small patio/indoor space, I believe anyone can grow their own food with the right knowledge and tools. Let’s dig in and grow together!
