"I feel I can now plan a garden which I’ve never been able to do before.

I love this method!"  Amy, NZ

GROW AN ABUNDANT GARDEN & NOURISH
YOUR FAMILY FROM
YOUR LAND

Transform your backyard into a

thriving, year-round source of

fresh, organic, homegrown food

Want to grow real, homegrown food…
but feel overwhelmed by
where to start?

I get it! When we began our self-sufficiency journey over twenty years ago, we felt exactly the same.

 

I mean, taking on a task as big as growing your own food can feel daunting!

  • You want to get it right from the beginning, but have no clue what to prioritise first

  • You have the passion - and space - but lack clarity and knowledge to make a plan

  • You have a real concern you might build something you can't maintain

  • And too much conflicting information leaves you feeling stuck in constant indecision

You don't need more information. You need guidance and a step-by-step plan

The Nourishing Kitchen Garden Mentorship

This transformational program will take you from stuck and overwhelmed to empowered and confident, so you can build an abundant and nourishing garden that feeds your family, year-round

You'll learn how to:

  • Read your environment so you can plant the right things in the right places, with confidence

  • Build rich, living soil using simple composting methods and clever planting practices 

  • Shape beautiful kitchen garden beds and rotating maincrop beds, with fruit trees and berries woven in so it all flows naturally

  • Use companion planting and permaculture principles to build resilient organic gardens

  • Create effective systems that keep your garden producing abundantly season after season to keep food growing steadily through the seasons

Why people love this program

"I joined the course as a novice gardener, eager to learn but overwhelmed by conflicting information. Aby’s guidance made all the difference - her knowledge is phenomenal, the classes practical, and the resources easy to refer back to as I progress. Her patience, passion, and clear step-by-step approach create a safe, supportive learning environment. I can’t recommend this course enough!"   Kobie, Nelson

"This program was beyond my expectations. The weekly lessons were clear, well-structured, and made a huge topic feel completely manageable. The step-by-step approach and weekly calls kept me motivated and taking action, and the Q&A sessions and Facebook group are invaluable. I achieved more in my garden this year just by following the lessons - real, tangible progress. I can’t recommend it enough!"   Simone, Auckland

I'm Aby and my partner and I have been in your shoes, and made all the mistakes..

We set out to build a self sufficient lifestyle over twenty years ago so we could raise our children on fresh, organic homegrown produce grown straight from the land we lived on.

But we had no idea where to begin.

  • So we threw ourselves into learning everything we could and started experimenting on our land

  • We made mistakes, had crop failures, and planted many things in the wrong places 

  • We tried lots of techniques and created many different types of growing spaces

  • From indoor tunnel houses, to outdoor kitchen gardens, traditional orchards to layered food forests

  • Over time, and with a lot of determination, we gradually learnt what worked and what didn't

  • We've developed sustainable gardening practices that work with the land, and nature

  • We've developed simple systems that encourage diversity and create year-round harvests without stress or complication

  • And we've refined these systems and repeated them on many different types of land, from small sections, to large flat paddocks, to bush clad hillsides

If you’re ready for clarity — and a plan that actually works — I’d love to help you create a garden that finally feels achievable and truly supports the way you want to feed your family.

If you're dreaming of feeding your family from your land, let's talk​​​
