0:00.0	You're listening to the Beginners Garden podcast. I'm Jill McShehehehe with Journey Withjil.net,
0:06.1	and my goal is to give beginning gardeners the tools they need to grow a rewarding, productive garden. Hey there. I hope you're having a great new year so far, and I have a special episode for you today.
0:37.2	If you've been listening along through the month of
0:40.1	December of 2019, you know that I have been having conversations with authors of some of my
0:46.0	favorite gardening books that I thought you guys might be interested in either reading
0:51.2	or at least hearing from them. And today I'm going to be finishing up that
0:56.4	series with a three-time guest. Today will be her third time on the episode today. And that is
1:03.2	Melissa K. Norris, the author of the just released as of today, the book The Family Garden Plan. I was so fortunate to be able to get
1:15.0	a pre-released copy of her book. I read it in a weekend because, well, I was preparing for
1:20.9	talking with her in the interview, but also because it was that good and I couldn't put it down.
1:25.6	And I couldn't recommend it enough. You guys know
1:28.9	if you've listened to this podcast how much I appreciate the work that Melissa does. And she is a dear
1:34.6	friend and it was an honor to be able to read her book and to share this conversation with her
1:40.5	with you guys today. In our conversation today, we're going to be talking about some
1:46.5	questions that you guys have been asking me that she answers in her book, but we're going to
1:51.0	give you a sneak peek in this conversation, like how to know how much of a particular plant
1:56.9	that you should plant for your family. Or what about perennial plantings? What kind of fruits that
2:04.5	you might want to put in your garden this year? We'll also talk about herbs and flowers and where to
2:10.7	put them in your garden and companion planting because she goes into that quite a bit in her book as well.
2:16.8	So I know that you're going to
2:18.3	love this conversation with Melissa as we talk about these subjects and many more on today's episode.
2:24.2	Here's my conversation with Melissa K. Norris of the Pioneering Today podcast and the author
