The Moveable Feast | Growing Edibles in Containers

By

Gardeners love growing veggies and salad greens in containers

The good news is that most edibles are super happy growing in containers. If you’ve downsized or you have a small garden, you can transform your decks, patios, and balconies by grouping containers for a visual punch of color with your kitchen garden.

Containers are easier to plant and maintain than traditional garden beds because they elevated off the ground and they’re moveable so you can capture more or less sun as it changes from season to season. And speaking of moving, your body will be so much happier because you can tend and harvest your edible feast without bending over.

About Toni Gattone

Now in my seventies, I relate to my audience who, from time to time, have secretly wondered how long they can continue gardening because of physical limitations. I suffer from chronic back pain that I inherited from my Mom, but I can't complain because that is what brought me to create my "encore career" as a full-time professional speaker and author.

I'm honored to share I won the 2021 Gold Medal Award for Speaking for my adaptive gardening seminar from GardenComm International.

I'm Italian, stubborn, and determined to never give up. I believe there is always another way to get things done if we get creative and learn new ways to adapt, modify, and change the way we've always done things.

You won't go wrong hiring me to speak at your next event. I'm an enthusiastic how-to speaker, and I can inspire your audience to be all they can be, so they can garden for life, in comfort and safety, with ease and joy.
