It’s finally here! The week long class dedicated to Square Foot Gardening! Because I am no expert on gardening, I’ve enlisted the help of Belinda Jensen the Square Foot Gardening pro from Home Gardens To Go to teach us all how to have successful, virtually weed-free gardens this year! Belinda was trained under Mel Bartholomew (Mr. Square Foot Gardening, himself), teaches square foot gardening classes in Utah, and trains anyone who wants to become Square Foot Gardening certified! If you haven’t met Belinda yet, make sure you check out the first day of the class posted last Monday which introduces Belinda and goes over the basics and benefits of Square Foot Gardening. Remember, I’ve decided to dedicate all of this month to gardening and specifically this week long class with Belinda…because this is MY year and YOUR year to have a thriving hassle-free garden!

I pretty much think these are the coolest things since sliced bread! I spent a lot of time trying to figure out how I was going to develop a drip system for my boxes until I was smart enough to look at Belinda’s accessories page on her website to see she had already solved this problem for me! It really makes gardening hassle free (especially if you plan on going out of town this summer and don’t want to find some one who will hopefully remember to water your precious garden!
