Jordan Mara is a Canadian gardener and content creator based on the West Coast. He’s the founder of Mind & Soil, a gardening platform that covers seasonal gardening topics by trialing gardening experiments. Jordan launched Mind & Soil in 2020 to connect people with gardening’s mental health benefits. He runs experiments, shares what works and what doesn’t, documents the reality of gardening and offers the online education and organic gardening products needed for a thriving garden, and a peaceful, restorative gardening experience.
Jordan will talk to us about preparing the soil for huge harvests and will provide some useful nuggets right before we are going to plant things into our gardens.
“This year I will be doing a challenge of trying to grow 1,000lbs of produce in just my backyard to show what’s possible AND give all 1,000lbs away! It will be fun to share more about that project with everybody and I’ll able to do my first update on the 1,000lb challenge and how it’s going!”
