Courtney Johnson is a homeschooling mom and Garden Coach business owner. She runs a successful gardening website and designs, installs and maintains kitchen gardens.

I promise that I can in fact spell correctly, especially the word "garden."

During my younger years, my family lived in Germany, and playing in our German neighbor’s garten platz, complete with bunny house and rows of veggies, was my first experience with gardening, and, as you may have guessed, the German word for garden is garten.

And there you go…

My grandparents and father have always kept a farm or garden chock full of peanuts, squash, zucchini, beans, and tomatoes in the summer, and collards, turnip greens, and mustards in the winter.

So I have grown up with a love for watching things grow.

For the past ten years, I’ve been gardening in my own spot of lawn, and through many failures and successes, I think I’m finally getting the hang of this!

I started my blog in 2016 and was already working alongside my husband building raised beds and selling them, but I definitely needed support and a process.

I found Nicole while scrolling Instagram in 2017, and I fell in love with her raised garden beds. I remember visiting her site and seeing a notice about the Garden Coach Society even before it came out. I emailed her to get on the list!

Nicole has helped me expand and organize my garden business which has allowed me to work for myself and to create a nice side income for my family. And the biggest bonus is I’m sharing my love for gardening with those around me!

If you love to garden, then join the Garden Coach Society! There's no better way to share your passion for gardening and to earn an income in the process.
