About Me

Curtis Mercado

Curtis Mercado
I’ve always had a green thumb—whether it was sneaking seeds from my grandpa’s garden as a kid or turning a patch of dirt behind our apartment into a jungle of herbs and flowers.

This site is where I pass along what’s worked for me, what’s flopped, and how to turn both into lessons (and maybe a few laughs along the way).
