Welcome to Backyard Begins.
Backyard Begins is for people who have never grown anything before — and for anyone starting again after a season that did not go to plan.
Start with one small bed, a pot, or a patch of ground. Learn the soil, water, and sun you already have, and build from there.
Backyard Begins is run by Taher Syed, a beginner gardener who is learning in public. Taher tries the simple methods first, keeps notes on what works, and shares the honest results — good harvests and failed beds alike.
Thanks for digging in. Plant something small, and see what grows.
