The Gardening Dad (www.thegardeningdad.com) educates dads (and moms!) on how to grow, garden, and feed their families in a simple, easy, and cost-friendly way. I'm your average guy: late-thirties, wonderful wife, kids, a dog, chickens and bees! I work a 9 to 5 job, and I absolutely love spending all my free time fine-tuning my gardening skills. I enjoy everything about gardening. I am a fourth-generation American gardener (and before that my family had gardens in southern Italy). I have almost 20 fruit trees, a large vegetable garden, several raised herb gardens, numerous berry bushes, and a greenhouse. My blog, TheGardeningDad.com is an easy-to-use resource for all things garden related.
