Meet Your Instructor
Hi, I’m Liz Will, a Master Gardener and professional Garden Coach, and I’m passionate about helping beginner gardeners grow with confidence!
I know what it’s like to feel completely overwhelmed when starting a garden…I’ve been there myself! But once I discovered simple, beginner friendly methods, gardening became one of my most rewarding (and addictive!) things I’ve ever done!
Now, as a professional Garden Coach, I use my knowledge and hands on experience to make gardening simple and approachable for everyone – whether you’re starting with a small raised bed, a few containers on a small balcony, or planning a full backyard garden.
My classes are designed to take the guesswork out of gardening, so you can stop feeling stuck and start growing successfully. I’d love to help you get started!
In addition to in-person classes, I also offer one-on-one Garden Coaching for those who want personalized help with their grden. If you’re looking for tailored guidance, check out my coaching options HERE.
