For three years I wrote how-to gardening articles for local readers of the Takoma Voice and loved it – til I finally gave it up to focus on activities that would help pay the bills. Reality, I hear you! That meant confining the garden-teaching to garden-coaching clients, which brings in a bit, and looking for paid work as a garden writer.
So I offered my services as a blogger to Homestead Gardens and now they're paying me to write the most useful stuff I possibly can on their blog. There's a lesson here – or at least some serious encouragement – for anyone hoping to make a living doing what they love to do.
So with that back-story introduction, here's the next installment of my garden-coaching column - What I Really Do in my Garden in November.

Wow, good for you for getting paid for it! I think you're providing some good info as well, having just read your latest installment. I gotta say about that, I really need to clean up my Felco pruner too. I lost my latest Felcos but luckily had another pair (dirtier pair!) in back up.
Good news. I hope it turns into a long and mutual fruitful relationship.
You give encouragement about the eternal problem out of how to make some $$$ out of all this blogging and writing.
I agree with commonweeder..you are giving encouragement how to make dollars………BTW nice flowers
