I love that I have access to Online Gardening School course content for life. Knowing the information is there when I need it keeps me motivated.

Chloe and Natalie's lessons are empowering, and they inspire me to grow and try new things!

I had been dabbling in backyard gardening for a few years before the class found me at the perfect time. Learning from Chloe and Natalie is like having a friend/garden guru who is there whenever you need them. I LOVE THIS CLASS!

I can’t say enough about how thrilled I’ve been to participate in the Gardening School. This course takes you from wherever you’re at and then you can dive in deeper. You’re not just logging in and getting monthly classes; it provides everything you need surrounding the gardening process and you can pick and choose what you want to learn. I’ve been so blown away by the content and the quality and timeliness of instructor response. If I have a question, they respond to it almost within 24 - 48 hoursI don’t think that this kind of class exists anywhere else.

The Garden School was inspiring for us and we shared the inspiration with neighbors and friends. It was infectious. Everyone around us started to garden. We were always outside planning, planting, weeding and finally harvesting. We incorporated so many useful gardening techniques, like good amendments for the soil, good plant diversity practices for gardening, timing for planting, planning the garden. Listening to a lecture became a family tradition for us - we all were taking notes.

The online gardening school is a gift to anyone interested in a sustainable lifestyle. Natalie and Chloe are unique individuals who live out the practices they share. Their many years of experience allow the learner to tap into what it means to have a deep connection and knowledge of the natural world. This is an unparalleled resource, unlike anything else available on the web today.

I’ve been gardening for a couple years now…not really knowing what I’m doing. I’ve wanted to keep getting better at it, so I’ve researched web forums, purchased books, borrowed books from the library…. but what I’ve learned in this course so far has been much more efficient and valuable than most of what I’ve found elsewhere. No more endless searches on YouTube for the proper techniques!! Thank you Chloe and Natalie!

Natalie and Chloe have a gift for helping others connect with the natural world and its bounty. They present gardening practices in an accessible way. These classes are an organized and practical way to get the confidence and knowledge to really dig into gardening!

  • Two words that come to mind when reflecting on my experience with the Online Gardening School are ‘empowered’ and ‘resourced’.

  • I've never gardened in my life and have been absolutely intimidated, but now I'm looking forward! Thank you for making it possible to approach this daunting topic.

  • In a vast ocean of online information I continue to return to the videos provided through the…course. Applying the information I learned through your course, my once small backyard garden is ever evolving into its own small urban food forest ecosystem.

A lot of the educational resources that I found online were aimed at people doing market gardening, and this course is really helpful for home gardeners, specifically. Both Natalie and Chloe are really good teachers. The class videos are clear and they’re simple but not superficial. In addition to the quality of the videos, the instructors have been really responsive. If I’ve had a question, I’ve gotten an answer pretty quickly and not just a stock answer. I think that’s the piece that I wasn’t expecting that I’ve really appreciated.”

This is the best class ever and the ability to go back and rewatch, review, etc. is just wonderful. Back in the 70’s when Mother Earth News was in Hendersonville and Organic Gardening Magazine was just a little bigger than a Reader’s Digest, and printed on newsprint paper, we never dreamed something so wonderful would be available in the future.

What sets this apart are the mentors. Chloe, Natalie and the team are not only deeply knowledgeable, but also fun, down-to-earth, and totally relatable. It feels like having your own personal gardening coaches—there when you need guidance, cheering you on when you succeed. Between the video content, the ability to submit questions, and the live Q&A sessions, the support is top-notch.

Since joining, my gardening has transformed. The money I’ve saved growing my own food has already paid for the tuition. For the depth of knowledge and personal mentorship you get, the price is a bargain.

The instructors are really funny, and provide clear information. I was pleasantly surprised that there was more information than I thought there would be. There are vegetables that I wouldn’t have grown if I didn’t have access to this course. I was especially excited about the fact that edible weeds were included in the curriculum.

  • I’ve taken a lot of online courses and watched my share of YouTube videos, but nothing compares to the depth and clarity of Growing Wise. The videos aren’t just informative—they actually changed how I garden. Chloe and Natalie are warm, real, and incredibly knowledgeable. It felt like I had personal garden mentors cheering me on. The course has paid for itself many times over in the confidence and success I’ve gained in my garden, and I rewatch videos every season to remind me of what I should be doing.

  • I always thought that you had to learn gardening in-person, but I was surprised by how good the online learning is with Growing Wise. The amount of material is pretty extensive and the month-to-month approach is so great. What I love the most about it is the two teaching styles of Natalie and Chloe. They give you the confidence to approach gardening yourself without being so intimidated by it. I’ve started a garden and have had pretty good success with it. With all my thanks, this class was worth every penny. It’s good for the world.
