Long time gardener Missy Snelbaker shares her garden expertise in our series called, Growing with Missy!

Missy has been gardening her whole life! What started with just two raised beds has grown into a 900+ square foot garden overflowing with sweet potatoes, 25+ varieties of peppers, dozens of tomatoes, eggplants, and so much more - all hand watered with love.

From canning and storing harvests to fermenting hot sauce, making homemade seasoning rubs, and cooking down fresh tomato paste, she truly does it all.

Join us monthly as we dive into a different garden goodie, share the highs and lows of growing, practical tips for a successful harvest, and how to preserve and use what you grow.
