Time to Grow
Manage episode 329886575 series 2924173
Melissa Wilsford is the owner of Rustic Hills Garden Co., a company focused on helping people to grow their own food through a full spectrum of services, from consultations and workshops to design and installation. Melissa believes that anyone can grow their own food and benefit from all the experience provides, and moreover, that growing our food is a powerful act toward fixing a broken food system. This two-fold passion is what led Melissa to start Rustic Hills Garden Co. She used her background in communications and journalism to launch, manage and promote this business. Her lifetime of gardening experience, artistic eye, and education as a Master Gardener served as the foundation for her continued self-taught skills in horticulture and design. In less than three years, Melissa has worked with over 100 clients while balancing the [now part-time] stay-at-home mom gig with her young children. Besides inspiring others to grow food, she hopes her perhaps unconventional business story can inspire others to "go for it."
