Watch A Recording of This Webinar

The springtime rush is over, but the growing season has only just begun. Join Southern Maine regenerative farmer, victory garden expert, and Rodale Institute Ambassador Acadia Tucker for a lesson on how to plant a garden for a rewarding harvest later this summer. Find out what crops you can plant right now from seeds, transplants, and cuttings. See how to take care of them once they’re in the ground, and discover why a regenerative twist on victory gardens is more critical than ever.

All live webinar attendees will receive 20% off the retail price of two of Acadia Tucker’s books: Growing Good Food: A Citizen’s Guide to Climate Victory Gardening and Growing Perennial Foods.

About Acadia Tucker:

Acadia Tucker is a regenerative farmer, climate activist, and author. Her books are a call to action to citizen gardeners everywhere, and lay the groundwork for planting an organic, regenerative garden. For her, this is gardening as if our future depends on it.

Before becoming an author, Acadia started a four-season organic market garden in Washington State inspired by farming pioneers Eliot Coleman and Jean-Martin Fortier. While managing the farm, Acadia grew 200 different food crops before heading back to school at the University of British Columbia to complete a Masters in Land and Water Systems.

She lives in Maine and New Hampshire with her farm dog, Nimbus, and grows hops to support locally sourced craft beer in New England, when she isn’t raising perennials in her own backyard. She is the author of Growing Perennial Foods: A Field Guide to Raising Resilient Herbs, Fruits, & Vegetables and Growing Good Food: A Citizen’s Guide to Climate Victory Gardening. Her forthcoming book Tiny Victory Gardens: Growing Good Food Without A Yard is another addition to the Stone Pier Press citizen gardening series.
