Summary
It didn't feel right to have Bill from Garden Maker on and not talk about the origin of the company. I always admire founders and entrepreneurs in the gardening space, being one myself!
If you're interested in how a company starts and how problems are solved, you'll love this episode.
Keep Growing,
Kevin

| 0:00.0 | What is up everyone? How are you doing today? I'm doing pretty dang good myself and I think that I and you will be doing even better after we listen to this episode and so I I know, I know, I've probably talked your ear off about |
| 0:16.6 | Garden Maker Naturals, who are the sponsors of the podcast. And you know what? I don't feel bad |
| 0:21.1 | about it because they sponsored this cast like I said and without |
| 0:25.1 | their patronage if you will there's just no way I'd be able to keep doing daily |
| 0:29.2 | episodes we're coming up on almost a year everyone. We're at episode I think 340 every day and so |
| 0:36.3 | don't get me wrong I absolutely love the podcast but I'm just so thankful that |
| 0:40.8 | they were able to support it in a way that makes it financially viable for me to keep doing. |
| 0:45.0 | And with that, this is our final episode with Bill of Garden Maker where he's going to tell us the Genesis story of the company, why it exists and what need he feels at |

| 1:41.2 | I think a four pound bag is ten dollars and you can use partner |
| 1:44.2 | shipping as the code all lowercase all one word to get 50% off your |
| 1:48.7 | shipping costs. It's downright dirt cheap pun intended. So let's get into this with Bill really hope you've enjoyed this |
