MIGARDENER IS TURNING 10!
I started as a young gardener who was passionate about growing food. What began as sharing
my knowledge in YouTube videos has grown into more than I could have ever imagined. In
January 2011, I set off on a mission to educate and encourage more people to grow food. I
strived to connect my viewers to their food and its effect on their overall health and, at the
same time, had a blast doing it. The dream was to create a global gardening community
focused on those three essential pillars. Through MIgardener’s multiple social media platforms
and becoming a published author with my book, The Autopilot Garden, we have reached more
people than ever before. And to think, that number is growing day by day- thanks to all of you!
MIgardener could not be what it is today without the team that has helped deliver the quality
content, and gardening needs to each of you.
In 2013, my wife Sindy joined the team and took the MIgardener brand to the growing
household name among gardeners you see today. Her expertise in design, project management,
and overall superwoman traits powered our team to new heights. We knew we needed more
team members to assist us in growing the brand. Putting trust in someone else felt vulnerable.
It took a lot of relationship-building to place a lifelong project in a stranger’s hands. However,
the decision was made, and there was no turning back. We quickly grew from a three-person
team to 5, then 8, then 12, and now nearly 20. From the content created on our blog and social
media, order fulfillment and customer service, event coordinating, product development, brand
expansion, or sourcing seed from our growers, it is all made possible by our team. The absolute
2 best people I have ever had the honor of working alongside. 3

Potager is a term used to describe a way of growing that is not only productive but
brings beauty into the forefront of your growing plan. Cut flowers are a great way
to tie these two facets together. You can choose to dƒisperse your flowers throughout
your production plants or dedicate a few rows if not a plot to the many different
varieties of florals to brighten your space. As wonderful as they are to view in your
garden, the idea of cut flowers are meant to bring joy into the home. As the seasons
progress and flowers begin to bloom I encourage you to enjoy the practice of
arranging flowers and foliage that can sit on the tables of your family and loved ones
for all to enjoy. Encourage your family to try their hand at arranging as well, you may
be surprised as to who in your life shares this talent.

loose fertile soil to give them the space they need
to stretch their roots. With the right soil, they are
easy to grow! They can be grown in many different
climates as long as you adapt your growing practice
to suit your area. If you live in a climate where
the ground doesn’t freeze solid you even have the
