Planting a garden in December sounds wild if you don’t live here, but in Florida it’s totally normal—so in this video I’m getting my patio set up for a great winter gardening season. I walk you through how I set up my GreenStalk vertical planter, how I like to organize the pockets, and what I’m thinking about as I plant everything out. This is very much a “real life” setup: practical, doable, and meant to make it easy for me to keep up with watering and harvesting right outside my door. I also chat a bit about planting “by the signs,” which is one of those old-school, rhythmic ways of timing what you plant and when. I’m not here to be overly precious about it—I just like having a framework that helps me plan and feel a little more intentional with my garden. And just to be super clear: this isn’t sponsored. I genuinely enjoy the GreenStalk system, and I’m sharing how I use it so you can decide if a patio setup like this would work for your space and your season.
