Hi, I’m Lauren

I help beginner gardeners create thriving, beautiful gardens in small spaces like patios, balconies, and courtyards.

I came to gardening later in life, with no natural “green thumb” and a long history of struggling to keep plants alive. But when I discovered how much joy (and flavor!) a few homegrown herbs could bring, I was hooked.

Since then, I’ve been on a mission to make gardening feel doable — not daunting — for anyone with limited space.

Today, Patio Garden Life is a friendly corner of the internet where you’ll find practical container gardening tips, edible plant inspiration, beginner-friendly advice, and seasonal ideas to help you grow with confidence.

Whether you’ve never planted a thing or just want to stop killing your basil, I’m here to cheer you on.
