Building from the Ground Up?

If your yard is a blank canvas and you don’t know how to get started, Tennessee Kitchen Gardens can help remove the overwhelm. First, we will listen to your gardening goals— what do you want to grow and how much time do you have to spend? Then, we can design and create a garden that works for you.

Need Gardening Guidance?

If you have an established garden, but could use planning, planting, or maintenance tips, we can help. We know the common pitfalls of Tennessee gardening, and we can support your growing experience with personalized coaching, planting plans, and inspiring ideas that work for our region.

Community Workshops

Visit our model kitchen gardens to learn about seasonal planning, planting, maintenance, and harvest. We will share seeds and recipes, and stories of successes and failures from our own garden spaces.

We also host “Discovery Days” to engage children in the wonders of plants, pests, and of course, some treats from the garden.

Cultivate a healthy, grounded lifestyle in the garden. here

I’m Sarah, and Tennessee Kitchen Gardens has been a dream of mine for a long time. I’ve been balancing my gardening passion with my career as a high school English teacher for more than a decade. I started my first veggie patch in a remote village in Guatemala in 2005, and have been designing and redesigning gardens in Tennessee since 2012. Whether it’s comma placement or soil composition, I’m curious about everything. Get ready to become a garden nerd with me- you won’t be able to resist :)
