Diane and Tom have been growing herbs, greens, and microgreens in the desert and marketed them to chefs, restaurants and homeowners for decades. Learn what has worked for them and why.
Diane tending one of her herb beds. The soils are enriched with compost, woodchips, alfalfa hay and all natural fertilizers. Raised beds are protected from birds by screening and the woodchips enriched the soil in the growing areas.
Overhead irrigation is preferred for watering as it gives better water distribution for the seedlings and transplants.
You can see that this way of gardening stimulates herbs and greens which are supplied to local chefs and restaurants as well as the public through local farmers markets.
