I’m beyond excited to show you this incredible backyard transformation that’s all about entertainment and sustainable design! We completely wiped the slate clean and reimagined this rough outdoor space. We bumped out the patio and made a fun curved edge, creating a dedicated grilling station with plenty of space to work. We also changed up the paving pattern by the firepit area to make it feel like its own special zone. We even repurposed the old patio material to create a charming swing area in the back corner. It’s the perfect spot to sit and admire all the beauty that wasn’t there before! This transformation proves you don’t need to start from scratch to create something spectacular. With some creative repurposing and thoughtful design, any outdoor space can become your dream entertainment area! #backyardmakeover #sustainablegarden #patiodesign #outdoorentertaining #firepit #gardentransformation #backyarddesigns #outdoorliving #gardeninspiration #gardendesign

Each year, I meet a few diva (plant)’s and this year was purple cabbage! This little purple beauty should’ve grown a lot bigger, but she’s actually still surprisingly small! So, if you have any veggies that didn’t quite grow as well as they should’ve, try adding a bit more fertilizer 🥬 #cabbage #purplecabbage #cauliflower #garden #gardening #gardeningtips #homegrowngardens

If you have yellow leaves on your plants, here’s a super easy way to fix that! 💚 #plant #planting #planttips #garden #gardening #gardeningtips #homegrowngardens

When you’re designing your garden, make sure you’re planning the height of your garden boxes according to *your* height! I’m pretty tall, so I need garden boxes that are a little bit taller 💚 #gardendesign #garden #gardening #gardeningtips #homegrowngardens

If your garden has really poor drainage and all your mulch tends to float away, try out blue slate chip mulch! It’s super sturdy, low maintenance, and adds a really pretty texture to your backyard! 🪨 #mulch #blueslatechipmulch #garden #gardening #gardeningtips #homegrowngardens

A few videos ago, I talked about the importance of using corten steel for your garden boxes! Well, the fun doesn’t stop there! Corten steel also makes a really lovely edging in your backyard.

When you harvest your leafy vegetables, it’s important to leave the center of the plant alone. Make sure you’re only harvesting the outer leaves, so you can promote healthy plant growth 💚 #lacinatokale #kale #veggies #veggiegarden #garden #gardening #gardeningtips #homegrowngardens

If you’re in a pinch and need to ripen your tomatoes ASAP, here’s how! 🍅 #tomatoes #veggies #veggiegarden #garden #gardening #gardeningtips #homegrowngardens

Oregano is perennial, meaning it WILL come back every year! So, I highly, highly recommend planting oregano in a corner. This way, it won’t overtake your entire garden box! 🌿 #oregano #herbs #herbgarden #garden #gardening #gardeningtips #homegrowngardens

One of the most important things you can do for your garden is label your veggies! Not only is this super helpful so you know what’s what, but it also helps with garden companionship (a.k.a. making sure things are planted where they can thrive). #garden #gardening #gardeningtips #homegrowngardens

Cooking garden harvest meals with friends during winter months is such a gift! @krystinariverswrites is known for her abundant rampicante harvests and we put them to good use in this dairy-free nacho cheese sauce recipe! Watch our shenanigans below 👇🏻 https://youtu.be/maWt3Apoqow?si=n6enCAPZ7lDfRnVY — THE RECIPE— • 5 cups chopped rampicante squash, carrots, and/or sweet potatoes • 1 yellow onion, diced • 2 cups water (from boiled veggies) • 2 cups raw cashews/sunflower seeds, soaked • 1 cup canned coconut milk • 6 tbsp. nutritional yeast • 4 tbsp. lemon juice (freshly squeezed, if possible!) • 2-3 tsp. Pink Himalayan sea salt, to taste • 4 garlic cloves • ½ tsp. cayenne • ½ tsp. paprika 1) Get a pot of water boiling on the stove. 2) Peel and chop the rampicante squash, carrots, potatoes, and onion. 3) Once boiling, add your chopped veggies to the boiling water. Let them cook for about 15-20 minutes or until softened. Make sure you save the boiled veggie water! You’ll need it a little later on! 4) In a blender (I use my Vitamix!), add the boiled veggies, soaked cashews, coconut milk, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, Himalayan salt, garlic, cayenne, and paprika. 5) Add 2 cups of the water from the boiled veggies to the blender. 6) Blend until smooth and creamy (about 45 seconds - 1 minute). 7) Serve and enjoy with a glass of wine, some tortilla chips, and a great friend 💚 #vegan #dairyfree #gardenrecipes #gardenharvest #winter #homegrowngardens #homegrown #rampicante #squash #garden #organic

It’s answer time for this week’s episode of “Guess this Plant!” (Guessing game in the previous video!) 👉 Lemme know in the comments, did you guess right?! #guessthisplant #guessinggame #beans #garden #gardening #gardeningtips #homegrowngardens

Ok, gardeners! Time for another game of “Guess this Plant!” (Answer revealed in the next video!) Here are your clues: 1️⃣ It can grow in a bush variety or a vine variety. 2️⃣ You plant this in the spring. 3️⃣ The dried beans in the shell are smooth and white. 👉 Share this with a friend who loves to garden and see if they know what it is! #guessthisplant #guessinggame #beans #garden #gardening #gardeningtips #homegrowngardens

When you’re planting lacinato kale, there are 2 things you NEED to know! 1️⃣ Lacinato gets REALLY tall when it grows, so I always make sure to put it in the back. That way, it provides a really pretty backdrop for the rest of your veggies without taking over your garden. 2️⃣ Make sure you open up your roots if they look a little bound. This will help ensure that your kale grows big and strong 💪 #kale #lacinatokale #planting #garden #gardening #gardeningtips #homegrowngardens

Dwarf butterfly bushes are the perfect intersection of form and function! Their purple, cone-shaped flowers add such dynamism to your garden, while also drawing in pollinators to your garden. Win-win! 🪻 #dwarfbutterflybush #pollinators #pollinatorgarden #garden #gardening #gardeningtips #flowers #homegrowngardens

Before you pack up your garden for the winter, make sure you’re seed-saving! Nature automatically provides you with seeds to start your garden next year, so make sure to save what nature naturally provides 💚 (And fun fact: Most vegetable seeds, when properly stored, remain viable for 2-5 years!) #gardening #wintergarden #gardentips #gardeningtips #seeds #seedsaving

There are a few ways you can prep your garden in the winter, so it’s ready to go once spring hits! 1️⃣ Make sure you’re removing any diseased plants. They can survive below freezing temps, so if you leave them over the winter, they can harm your spring plant babies. 2️⃣ Also, be sure to add fresh compost! It’ll add essential nutrients to help create and preserve your soil microorganism population 💚 #gardening #wintergarden #gardentips #gardeningtips #veggiegarden #herbs

If you want to add a plant to your garden that ISN’T a veggie, you should check out sweet potato vines! While they aren’t edible, they make a really great addition to any garden space…I mean, look how gorgeous 🤩 #sweetpotatovines #garden #gardening #gardeningtips #backyardplants #viningplants #planting #homegrowngardens

Tomatoes die at 32°F (0°C), but you can save them! 🍅 Frost blankets work by creating an insulating air pocket and allowing moisture escape - unlike plastic covers which can trap dampness and damage plants. These breathable covers can protect plants down to 28°F (-2°C), giving you precious extra growing weeks 💚 #gardening #chicago #wintergarden #gardentips #gardeningtips #veggiegarden #herbs

Japanese Forest Grass is SUCH a great addition to your backyard! It’s perfect for shadier spots and adds a touch more flair than your typical grass 🕺 #japaneseforestgrass #garden #gardening #gardeningtips #backyardplants #grass #plants #planting #homegrowngardens

What veggies can actually survive Midwest winters?! Kale survives temps to 20°F, making it one of your best veggie options! Perennial herbs also show impressive cold tolerance: oregano (to -20°F), chives (to -35°F), and thyme (to 10°F)! You can also check out Buttercrunch and Romaine lettuce varieties, which can handle light frosts to 28°F! 👉 Share this with your garden loving friend! #gardening #chicagogardening #wintergarden #gardentips #kale #veggies #veggiegarden #herbs

In Chicago’s Zone 5 climate, temperatures regularly drop below 20°F, making productive growing nearly impossible! While most vegetables can’t survive, hardy perennial chives and certain kale varieties can withstand freezing temps! Kale’s survival depends on winter severity - it can handle temperatures down to 20°F but needs protection in extreme cold ❄️ #gardening #chicagogardening #wintergarden #gardentips #kale #zonefive

Arugula is PERFECT for a winter harvest! And the best part is you don’t need to be delicate when harvesting. Just tear off what you want and enjoy 🌱✨ #arugula #garden #gardening #gardeningtips #veggies #veggiegarden #planting #homegrowngardens

If you’re planting a fall garden, make sure you’re paying attention to the forecast. As soon as you see frost on the horizon, it’s time to run outside and pick your precious veggies! 🏃‍♀️ But, HOLD UP! You don’t need to pick everything. You can leave your lettuce, kale, and broccoli out in the garden until temps dip into the low 20’s! 👉 Share this with a friend who’s growing a fall garden! #fall #fallgarden #garden #gardening #gardeningtips #veggies #veggiegarden #planting #homegrowngardens

When you see freezing temps in the forecast, make sure you pick all your tomatoes! Otherwise, they’ll get mushy and nobody has time for that 🤢🍅 #tomatoes #garden #gardening #gardeningtips #homegrowngardens

Transitioning your garden from summer to fall? Here are 2 vital things you need to know! 1) You’ll need to deadhead your plants. That means getting rid of any spent plants, so they don’t take up any valuable space or energy in your garden! 2) Refresh your soil! Your new plant babies are going to need some added nutrients, so make sure you’re incorporating bloodmeal and feathermeal for added nitrogen! The awesome bonus is that your bulbs don’t need any maintenance during the winter season. They’ll literally just pop up in the spring! Amazing! 💚 #garden #gardening #gardeningtips #howtoplant #hyacinth #hyacinths #homegrowngardens

It may be November, but this is when kale thrives! Kale actually gets sweeter when the temp drops, so let your kale be as you clean up your garden. 🥬❄️ #kaleyeah #wintergarden #kale #organicgardening #thegiftthatkeepsongiving #homegrowngardens #chicago #elmhurst

Lettuce is a great veggie to put in your fall garden! Now, it won’t survive our freezing winters, but it CAN withstand temperatures as low as 20 degrees, so you can still get a few months out of it! 💚 #garden #lettuce #fallplanting #fallveggies #vegetablegarden #gardeningtips #veggietips #gardentips #gardening

If you have these 3 veggies in your garden, make sure to pick them NOW to avoid mushy veggies 🤢 #gardening #gardeningtips #fallgarden #winter #wintergarden #veggies #veggiegarden #gardentips #garden

Fall is the perfect time for you to plant your spring bulbs! And the best thing about them? No maintenance! They’ll simply pop up in the spring! 🌷 Just make sure you protect your precious bulbs by planting them 6 inches deep and cover them in chicken wire to protect them from pesky critters 🚫 #gardening #gardeningtips #bulbs #fallplanting #fallgarden #spring #springplants #plantingbulbs #gardentips #garden

Amanda & Steve’s backyard oasis turned out SO amazing! And, the best part is, this is only the beginning! We split their project into a few different parts. The first 2 phases included adding a She Shed to the property as well as constructing a beautiful walk-through garden space in the center of their backyard. Next up is adding a perennial garden, patio, and (a Homegrown Gardens first) a pool!! I can’t wait to share all the exciting steps with you in the future 💚 #garden #beforeandafter #gardentransformation #transformation #gardening #sheshed

Espalier trees are SO beautiful! Espalier is the term for how it’s grown and it doesn’t have to be an apple tree. You can also try pear, fig, plum, and cherry trees, too! 🌱 #espalier #espaliertree #appleespalier #garden #trees #fruittree #gardentips #gardeningtips

In this super unique, multi-part Homegrown Gardens project, we’re renovating Steve & Amanda’s ENTIRE backyard! In this video, I’m showing you phases 1 & 2 of 4! In phase 1, we started by adding the foundation for their adorable She Shed that serves as the backdrop for their stunning garden oasis. Then, in phase 2, we added the garden spaces! We created a series of decomposed granite pathways flanked by beautiful wooden garden boxes. We even incorporated a mini solo stove, so they can literally sit right in the middle of their stunning garden oasis. How cool is that?! For the next few phases, we’re planning on including a pool (which will be a Homegrown Gardens first!!!), a perennial garden, and a few other fun surprises!
