0:00.0	Hey, friends. Welcome back to the old fashioned on-purpose podcast. I am so excited for today's
0:05.1	interview. It's been a long time coming. So as you know, I am a huge fan of organic gardening
0:11.5	methods. We've talked a lot about that over the years. We've had on different guests. I've shared
0:15.5	with you some of my techniques, you know, trying to keep the chemicals out of the garden trying to
0:20.8	grow food in a way that's good for me and the plants and the soil. And it works together in just a
0:26.9	beautiful synergy most of the time. But maybe one of the aspects that we don't talk about

1:32.3	podcast, you have so much gardening content. I know you've been doing this forever. I mean, how long
1:37.6	exactly have you been chasing this world of organic gardening? Well, you know, coming out of school,
1:43.4	I really started with it part time because I ended up with a suit job full, you know, a full-time
1:49.1	suit job. And I thought, what am I doing? But it was paying the bills while I was looking for that,
1:54.3	you know, full-time horticultural revenue stream. And that that didn't happen until 2002,
