About Red Pot Kitchen Gardens

What started as a personal challenge has become a passion, a means to eat healthier and a great way to meet and help people with similar interests.

I started gardening like most people, a few houseplants at a time, overwintering annuals and perennials, and adopting stray plants as some people adopt stray cats.

Due to food sensitivities, my interests quickly moved to Kitchen Gardens, and things have been growing ever since… pun intended 😉

To further my knowledge (it's not all about green thumbs), I have completed the Gardenary program and am currently completing the Sustainable Urban Agriculture program at the University of Guelph.

Growing food costs, climate change making certain food more scarce, food sensitivities and a growing passion for local grown self sustainability and yes, a significant demand for Kitchen Gardens in the area, I established a little business to help others build and maintain their own Kitchen Garden.

I can even help you figure out what to do with all the great fruit, herbs and veggies you'll be growing through local Cooking and preserving classes – watch for more information as the growing season approaches.

Regardless of your experience, what space you have or what doubts or questions you may have – reach out, I'd like to hear from you!
