Imagine that it’s springtime and you are standing in your garden. You are holding a cup of coffee and letting your eyes wander through your beds. The birds are cheerfully chatting and the whole scene is bright with new life. You start to think about trying something new in your garden this season. Curiosity takes ahold of you and the possibilities stack on top of each other! Then, your next thought is, “I have no idea where to start.”
Yikes! Fear is hard to overcome. If you have found yourself in a similar position, you are not alone. Many gardeners worry that they will fail or that whatever they want to try is too risky for the zone they live in.
Whether you are new to gardening or have been digging in the dirt for years, My Thyme Gardens is here with a unique and illuminating offering: Garden Coaching.
What is Garden Coaching?
Glad you asked! This is a one-hour walkthrough of your garden with Jennifer of MTG (if you don’t live in the Macomb area, she also offers virtual sessions). A lover of healthy ecosystems and perennial beauty, Jen teaches you how to care for your current gardens, as well as how to rejuvenate your beds or start from scratch. During a coaching session, she invites you to share your gardening goals, responding with concrete advice on how to make your dreams a reality. She’ll introduce you to the potential that is hiding right in your backyard.
As you meander with Jen around your property, expect to find a listening ear, tailored gardening tips for your tiny plot of earth, exciting discoveries that you hadn’t noticed before, an option to purchase a unique perennial design that is inviting for creatures of all sizes in your neighborhood, and more. She’ll help you support local pollinators and utilize native plants, making your garden a place of healing and nourishment all year long.
You’ll leave this session feeling empowered and armed with timeless tools to apply to your own garden adventure. Embrace your inner scientist as you interact with your outdoor space.
What Does Each Session Include?
- Recommendations for plants that can thrive in your garden via a Pinterest board that is available to you for one year
- A one-hour walk-through of your garden (in person or virtual) where you’ll learn how to design, plant, grow, and maintain your own garden spaces
- 1 fifteen-minute follow-up call to answer any questions after the Pinterest boards are received
- An estimate of what it would cost to purchase plants at a local nursery and the number of plants suggested for each bed
- Jen also offers custom designs at an additional cost. These bespoke hand drawings can be followed and incorporated by you or a hired landscaper.
Discover the joy of interacting with your garden’s complex and magical ecosystems now!
