A few months ago I was perusing Seeds Now and ended up on the lettuce page. I was delighted to find a video on how to successfully plant lettuce in containers…which was the whole point of buying the lettuce seeds. I watched the Gardenerd video and found myself watching several others on the same channel.
Then I went promptly to her Facebook page to like it and tell her how much I liked her videos. Well to my surprise she came over to the Imperfectly Happy FB page too. So started a lovely Facebook following of comments and likes… Until one day I announced the homesteading show and asked if anyone had something interesting to share and would like to be a guest on the show. Christy was the first to respond!
In the meantime Christy’s new book was released, Gardening For Geeks. I practically ran to the store to check it out. I sat in the coffee shop at the bookstore and devoured the book and a caramel macchiato with equal enthusiasm. Needless to say, I bought the book. I worried that with a book called Gardening for Geeks and words like microbiology, ecology and mathematics on the cover, it would be over my head. But I found this to be quite the opposite. The book is a gem, a treasure trove of information that is well laid out and just geeky enough to make is stand out over the basic ho-hum gardening books. I absolutely love the “Geeky Gardening Tips” laced throughout the book.
Well the time for the interview finally came and I am so excited to share it with you. Christy has decades of experience in the garden and so much wisdom to share.
So take a listen to The Imperfectly Happy Homesteader now but don’t forget to enter into the giveaway below. Christy is giving away an author signed copy of Gardening for Geeks!
Looking forward to your posts!
Thank you Traci. I have so much to share but my time has been gobbled up with holidays, rehearsals and life. Thanks for not giving up on me! 🙂
