About Me

Bernadette Northrup

Bernadette Northrup
I’ve always had a green thumb—my mom says I was rearranging her flower pots by the age of four. Now, I spend my days coaxing life out of soil, whether it’s on a city balcony or a country plot.

If you’re just starting out or looking to level up your gardening game, you’re in the right place.
