About Me

Perry Lattimore

Perry Lattimore
I’ve always had a soft spot for the quiet magic of a thriving garden—whether it’s the first green shoots breaking through soil in spring or the way a well-tended plant can turn a corner of the world into a little sanctuary. My family’s backyard in rural Michigan was my first classroom, where I learned that gardening isn’t just about growing things; it’s about patience, curiosity, and the small joys of watching life unfold. Here, I share the lessons I’ve picked up along the way, from the tried-and-true to the happily surprising, so you can find the same joy in your own patch of earth.
