What We'll Do Together

STEP 1

Build

Inside the Academy, you'll understand and use the Gardenary method for setting up a kitchen garden perfectly the first time.

As a member of the Academy, you'll know exactly how to tend your garden at each stage and also how to enjoy your productive organic garden that produces harvest after harvest.

Kitchen Garden Academy Alumni

"Nicole led me step by step and gave me the confidence I needed to design and build my new garden boxes. I totally love having fresh greens to harvest every day! We used recycled deck wood to keep the price down. Her 103 soil mix has really made a difference in my ability to grow everything I’ve planted. From buying seeds to harvesting, I’ve had the support needed."

Glenda Pfeifer

"Creating a vegetable garden is very easy with Nicole and KGA."

Lilian Fereira

"Start out easy to build your confidence, and don’t over do it! Make a plan for your dream garden. Include ways to allow expansion, as that will surely happen! Start with easy plants to allow for success, and follow along with Nicole as she gives you great advice that will ease you into container gardening. Learn, plan, grow, and be patient = success!"

Patti Burkholder

"Very detailed and informative."

"It's a MUST HAVE course!"

I don't have a lot of space. Will this work for me?

How much money do I need to spend beyond Kitchen Garden Academy?

Expect to spend a minimum of a few hundred dollars for a basic 4x4 raised bed. You might invest $300-$500 more in the raised bed, the soil, the trellis, and the seeds.

Kitchen Garden Academy Alumni

"Once the joy of my life, now my raised bed traditional gardens had become a nightmare, and I was ready to give up gardening for good. The demolition crew was contracted and had begun tearing out the beds to plant grass. Then I came across KGA. The training breathed life into my dying dream, and I once again had hope that I could have a garden system that wouldn't require all my time. I immediately halted the crew and gave new instructions. Now I have a gorgeous oasis that fills me with joy once again. I am not exaggerating when I say KGA gave me my life back!"

APRIL JACKSON


"I loved being part of this group. The knowledge, the step-by-step instructions, and the support from other gardeners and Nicole and the staff were invaluable. It’s more than just a garden; it’s a source of wonder and joy. It never disappoints, and when it does, there are solutions to explore and encouragement. It’s life-changing."

BARBARA SCHMIDT


"This garden install was part of a DIY total land and home renovation. We had the elbow grease but lacked the garden know-how. KGA simplified the process from planning to harvest and equipped us with the tools and confidence we needed to make our family’s kitchen garden dreams come true. Thank you, Nicole and KGA. We are forever grateful!"

MAGGIE SEARS


"I have learned a lot even though I have been gardening for a while."

CAROL FLANAGAN


"Kitchen Garden Academy helped give me the tools for understanding how to create a garden from the ground up that is practical, productive, and pretty. I used to kill every plant given to me and had no idea where to even start to grow my own garden. It has been so satisfying to be able to eat from our garden and even share harvests with friends!"

MONIQUE BOTTGER


"The investment is worth your time and is an educational hobby. Join!"

MISTI NICKEL

"The placement, quality of plants and the soil proved the decades of mistakes that I have made. I wasted time and money on unproductive plants. In less than 6 weeks I am harvesting food. At the price of fresh food, I am so pleased! And I know it is chemical free. If I have questions there are videos for that!"
