As a Hamilton County Master Gardener, I bring a comprehensive understanding of our local habitat and a passion for sustainable gardening practices. Rooted in a family tree that spans generations of farmers, 200 years to be exact, I also embody a heritage full of agricultural wisdom.

Our ultimate goal is to provide the resources and support for you to thrive and experience the joy of Mother Nature!
