About Me

Trisha Everson

Trisha Everson
I’ve always had a soft spot for the quiet magic of a garden—whether it’s the first green shoots pushing through soil in spring or the way sunlight dances through leaves on a summer afternoon.

This site is where I share the lessons I’ve learned, the experiments that worked (and the few that didn’t), and the simple pleasure of connecting with the earth—one seed at a time.
