Class Description
My name is Mellissa Bailey,I have four children and we have been homeschooling for 7 years. I started gardening 20 plus years ago and because my husband was in the Cost Guard I have had the opportunity to grow in three different growing zones and several different growing climates. My family and I currently live in China Spring where we try to grow as much of our own foods as we can. Gardening brings me so much joy and I look forwarded to teaching others how to provide healthy and nutritious foods for themselves and their families.
