While I am not an expert on every herb profiled here, I have grown most of them. It is my intention to provide as complete a profile as I can for each herb. For the ones that I know, the profile will contain both researched information and my experience with the herb. I have worked with traditional gardens, market gardens, raised beds, and container gardens. As someone who has gardened in an RV, I know that a lot can be done in tiny spaces. Each of these herbs is productive in tiny spaces.

I am not an expert on every vegetable in these profiles but I am endeavoring to provide a complete profile for each vegetable. For the plants that I know, I supplement the researched information with my experience as a Midwestern U.S. gardener and with my experience growing plants in containers in an RV. These vegetables are well suited for small spaces from an RV to a small outside garden.

I have grown a number of fruits in the ground but I have very limited experience growing fruits in containers. Many of these profiles are my research so that I can go from experimenting with planting salvaged seeds to successfully growing fruit. Come and experiment with me and grow a fruit. Here is the information for a good start.

Here is a set of general resiliency tools that work in all aspects of life, not just gardening.
