The Story of Urban Yardener

Hey, folks! I’d like to introduce myself. I’m Linnea, and this is my partner, Kirk. I'm stoked to introduce you to Urban Yardener.

Kirk and I have been avid gardeners for the past ten years in addition to our career experience. With Kirk in City Planning and my Bachelor's Degree in Soil Science and background steeped in farming and crop planning, We've spent years getting our hands dirty (in the best way possible). From the fields to the farmers' markets, I've seen it all and learned a ton along the way. In fact, I even have a day job in recycling and composting Policy!

But what really fuels my passion? Helping fellow busy people turn yards into thriving back or front yardens. I'm all about bringing a progressive and science-based approach to gardening, making it accessible and enjoyable, and I promise you won’t find any of those click-baity fake garden hacks here.

So, when you're scrolling through your feed, looking for reliable gardening advice, know that Urban Yardener isn't just another aspirational, unachievable, perfectionist garden blog. We're backed by real expertise, real experience, and a real dedication to helping you grow something amazing to enhance your busy lives.
