Do you ever feel like in your gardening life, you're going up the down escalator?

I mean, Mother Nature never stops. Always on the move, always changing.

Never a dull moment for sure. But when we're trying to garden and just keep up,

sometimes it can feel overwhelming. But there are ways to get a handle on at least

feeling more organized, like we have a little more control. How nice would it be to feel like we

really had a handle on organizing our gardening life? Well, for some of us, we do.

We have systems. We implement them. We stay on top of them. We reference them.

We have a plan that works for us. And we're better gardeners for it too.

But there are plenty of us that don't have that system yet.

Or at least we haven't found it. And it's not that we don't want it.

We're still looking. And take comfort in knowing you are not alone there.

There are plenty of us like that. But the thing about gardeners is that we're a powerful force.

And we love to share information. As long as it works for you, maybe it works for someone else too.

You're listening to the Joe Gardner Show, the podcast all about gardening,

where we cover everything you need to know to grow like a pro, no experience required.

And now, here's your guide, National Gardening Television Host, and the Joe Behind Joe Gardner, Joe Lample.

Well, hi everybody. It's Joe Lample, the Joe Behind Joe Gardner. And welcome to the Joe Gardner Show. Thanks for listening today.

Well, this is the time of year where Mother Nature is just as anxious to get going as we are.

And everything comes at us like, well, I like to say it's like drinking out of a fire hydrant, all of a sudden, you know, it's all coming at us.

And along with that, we have a lot to do in a very small window of time.

Basically that window opens, it's open for a little while, and then it kind of closes.

At least for the things that we need to do during this all-important time of getting the garden ready and prepping everything for the growing season.
