Now I’m not gonna fool you and say it’s all gonna be easy but I will say it will be worth it. Day One is all about brainstorming! You can download the first 30 days here (https://mikesgreengarden.files.wordpress.com/2018/01/2018calendarjanuary.pdf) while you’re waiting for it to come in the mail.

Deep beds full of healthy nutritious broccoli, tomatoes and fresh lettuce? Imagine anything is possible. The first page is a great place to make a list of all your garden dreams! Don’t leave anything out! Do you want a pond with a water fountain in the middle? An orchard full of fruit trees? Deep beds full of healthy nutritious broccoli, tomatoes and fresh lettuce? An earth friendly landscape your puppy can run around on without a worry? A root cellar to store your produce come winter? A green house to help extend your season? A place to market your extra produce? A fence to keep the deer out? A chicken tractor? Growing sweet potatoes? Ordering some heirloom seeds? Pollinator plants to attract bees and butterflies? Beehives full of honey? Today I want you to start your list of gardening dreams! Day Two Make a Plan Let’s take your list and start to define a strategy. The first step is to organize and prioritize your goals. I like to start with the calendar and put my goals into chronological order. A general guess for now is fine. We’ll get to the details down the line. Which ones can you start now? Which ones do you need to wait until the ground thaws? Which ones do you need supplies for? Which ones do you have to accomplish this year? A secret I have learned about successful gardening is that you should start with your harvest date? When do you want to be done? If you’re working on a landscape when do you want to be able to enjoy it? If you are planting vegetables when would you be harvesting? Do you have a list of seeds you want plant? Day Three – S.M.A.R.T. GOALS To listen to the podcast go to organicgardenerpodcast.com The acronym S.M.A.R.T stands for Strategic Measurable Attainable Relevant Time-bound For each of your goals you are going to need to create a SMART strategy. Today we are just going to start with your most important goal you want to complete in 2018.... Support this podcast
