👩🏻‍🦰 A B O U T M E:
Ashley has had a passion for plants since she was a small child. In the long summers as a child, she would garden alongside her grandmother and it was then that she realized her love for greenery. With years of great studying, Ashley had begun her post-secondary education at the University of Saskatchewan.
At first, her second love, animals, was the career path she chose but while doing her undergrad she realized that her education would take her elsewhere. And with that, four years later she graduated from the University of Saskatchewan with a bachelor’s degree in science and a major in Soil Science.
Some of Ashley’s interests are YouTube, in which she posts informative videos about plants and gardening. The focus of Ashley’s YouTube channel is to bring science to gardening in a way that is informative but also helpful to others learning to garden. She also talks about the importance of having your own garden and the joys of gardening indoors. Ashley continues to study plants in her free time and hopes to expand her YouTube channel as well as her reach to up-and-coming gardeners.

  2. Yep DIY worm bin was ok. The worm towers are great. I’m biased. Worms are great for up-cycling trash. Ann approved. 👍🏼😁🪱

  3. the tool belt is incredible i no longer clean without wearing an apron to hold all my bits and bobs and that tool belt could fill a real hole in my life

  4. I got QR plant labels as a gift idea for a gardening friend and they loved it. You scan them to save plant growth notes and care info. They’re thick stainless steel and honestly feel like they’ll last forever. Got mine on Amazon in the US.
