Learning by doing – together
Don’t Just Watch. Grow Something
The Grow Your Own Summit isn’t about filling five days with information you’ll forget a week later. We want you to leave with ideas you can actually take outside and put into practice.
Whether that means starting your first seeds, improving your soil, planting a few containers, attracting more pollinators, solving a pest problem, or taking your existing garden to the next level, the goal is simple: learn something and grow something.
Here are some of the interactive experiences we’re building into the summit:
LEARN FROM PEOPLE WHO ACTUALLY GROW
From First Seed to Bigger Harvests
The Grow Your Own Summit brings together gardeners, farmers, nursery owners, homesteaders, authors, educators, and experienced growers who have spent years learning what works—and what doesn’t.
Love You Love
Food, Flowers, Herbs & More
Grow vegetables, herbs, flowers, fruit, trees, and other plants that fit your goals, your space, and your lifestyle.
Start Strong
Seeds, Soil & Healthy Plants
Learn about seed starting, propagation, seed saving, soil health, composting, fertility, and how to create the conditions plants need to thrive.
Work With Your Space
Real homes. Real food. Real life.
Containers to Market Gardens
From patios and raised beds to landscapes, homesteads, high tunnels, and market gardens, learn how to make the most of your space.
SOLVE REAL GROWING PROBLEMS
Water, Pests, Pollinators & Climate
Learn practical approaches to watering, pest management, beneficial insects, pollinators, difficult growing conditions, and the challenges every grower eventually faces.
Maybe you want a better tomato harvest, healthier fruit trees, a yard filled with flowers and pollinators, or enough production to sell what you grow. Whatever your goal, you’ll hear from people who have spent years doing the work and are ready to show you what they’ve learned.
ROOTED IN THE GARDEN. GROWING IN FAITH.
Rooted in Faith by Amber Bradshaw
For many of us, time in the garden is about more than what we grow. It’s a place to slow down, notice God’s creation, and see His lessons in the seasons of planting, pruning, waiting, and harvest.
Rooted in Faith: A 365 Daily Devotional for Women Who Love to Garden was written especially for Christian women who find joy in planting seeds and watching things grow. Each day includes KJV Scripture, a short devotional, and space for personal reflection, making it easy to spend a few meaningful minutes with God each day.
Throughout the year, the devotions draw connections between gardening and spiritual life—planting seeds of truth, pulling weeds of worry, weathering difficult seasons, waiting patiently for growth, and recognizing the beauty of a life firmly rooted in faith.
The Grow Your Own Summit is about cultivating the things that matter to us. For me, faith has always been part of that. If you love God, love to garden, and enjoy finding His lessons in the everyday work of tending and growing, I wrote Rooted in Faith with you in mind.
