Have you, like me, thought about finally growing your own produce? Especially in times of uncertainty, we need to know that we have access to healthy, nutritious and flavorful produce all year long. My answer to this burning question came in the form of a Tower Garden. They were first introduced at Epcot Center and have now found their way into homes, schools, restaurants, hospitals, airports and sports complexes.

I once believed that proper planning and time management would free me from stress, anxiety and overwhelm. Big fat lie - It doesn’t! It didn’t matter what version of planner I bought. Chunking my time into bite sized pieces didn’t remove the pressure either. And, the more I tried to manage my time the more overwhelmed I became…
