Green Thumbing for Beginners

If you want to try your thumb at cultivating & growing beauty, then I’m glad you found yourself here! I am confident that this educational & inspiring conversation with my best friend Whitney about all things gardening for beginners will get you on your way toward your green thumb dreams!
