At Gibby’s Garden you’ll learn how to garden in a way that’s enjoyable and leaves you walking away with a feeling of accomplishment. I’ll show you the way I do things, from choosing the best vegetable varieties to grow in Maine, tips for planning, planting, fertilizing, going organic, preserving your harvest, and everything in between.

You’ll learn what you need to know to grow an organic vegetable garden in Maine’s short growing season. You may even find your thumbs turning green. With the right knowledge at your fingertips you’ll be growing a bounty of your favorite vegetables in no time.

I’ve been gardening since I was a small child. As soon as I was old enough, I grew my very own vegetable garden with some hits and misses along the way. I’ve honed my craft, forged my own gardening style, and have picked up a bushel of gardening how-to’s and tips over the years from time-savers, gardening must-haves, and how to really enjoy my time spent in the garden.
