The warm weather and longer days create an ideal environment for plants to thrive. Picture yourself surrounded by vibrant blooms, lush greenery, and the delightful scent of freshly grown herbs. It's a recipe for pure joy and relaxation right in your own backyard.

Plant Now, Harvest Soon:

You'll be amazed at what you can still plant and harvest this season. While some crops thrive in the early spring, others, like tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, and basil, are just waiting for you to sow their seeds. The best part? You'll have a bountiful harvest in a few weeks' time. Imagine the satisfaction of picking your own juicy tomatoes or plucking fresh herbs to elevate your culinary creations.

Take Advantage of Garden Sales:

One fantastic perk of starting a garden in June is the incredible deals you can find on gardening supplies. Nurseries and garden centers often offer discounted prices so it’s the perfect opportunity to grab those plants, and seeds.

Enjoy the Journey of Learning:

Gardening is all about learning and experimenting. Starting your garden now allows you to embark on a journey of growth and discovery. You'll learn valuable lessons about plant care, pest management, and the wonders of nature. Embrace the learning process and don't be afraid to make mistakes. Each experience will make you a more knowledgeable and confident gardener. AND maybe just maybe you’ll be the wiser and only start your garden in June from here on out.


Start a garden or even just some herbs on your deck or a few flower seeds in pots. Gardening  is the perfect way to tap into the joys of nature and create your own sanctuary. 

You're not too late; the season is just beginning! The satisfaction of watching your garden flourish and harvesting the fruits of your labor will bring you immeasurable joy. Embrace the late-season magic, and let your green thumb shine!
