About Sophia Jackson
Hi there! I’m Sophia Jackson, and I believe gardening is all about rolling up your sleeves, getting a little dirt under your nails, and growing something beautiful together—with your family or just for yourself. I love testing out new techniques, sharing what works (and what doesn’t!), and helping folks grow their own food and flowers right at home, no matter the size of their backyard or balcony. I’m here to chat, share some laughs, and help you learn from my experiments and experiences so you can enjoy the simple, down-to-earth joy of gardening.
