LH 87: Simple Organic Gardening Hacks

Simple, eco-friendly solutions to improve any garden.

I thought this would be a great time to dive into this topic because so many of us are chomping at the bit to get out into the garden.

In this week’s episode, I bring on author Shawna Coronado to talk about organic gardening tips from her book, 101 Organic Gardening Hacks.

Some of the tips are practical time-savers, others are clever ways to upcycle everyday items. But all of them can help you grow a more organic and eco-friendly garden.

You will learn:

• How to use empty wine bottles in the garden
• Why rotisserie chicken leads to greenhouse growing
• A shortcut to saving tomato seeds
• How to grow edibles from kitchen scraps
• The secret to sprouting potatoes
• The magic of manure tea
• How to reuse cooking water
