The eTwinning Team
Ready to grow your own food this fall? We sure are. Ready-to-Grow has been very busy getting ready for the fall growing season. During the COVID pandemic we have been witnessing an increase in more people planting edible plants at home, wanting more food security as well as something fun to with more time at home.
Our schedule for installing and planting gardens is filling up really quickly for the fall. If anyone would like our help creating a new garden or planting an existing one I recommend reaching out soon.
For those of you that are ready to plant your garden on your own, we have a very full selection of veggie and herb plants right now as well as many other supplies your might need for your organic garden. In an effort to limit crowds at our nursery we haven't scheduled any sales or classes so far this season. If COVID gets more under control later in the season we may reconsider this.
We currently are opening only by appointment at the Ready-to-Grow Garden Center. By being open by appointment our intention is to have little overlap of customers and a safer experience for picking up garden supplies. We also ask that visitors wear masks and maintain distance from others during the visit.
If you'd like to schedule an appointment for pickup, please visit our appointments page.
To see what we have growing this season, feel free to visit our plant selection page. We also have a lot of fruit trees!

Message from Sean
The school is West Lab at 5300 Camilo Street, Coral Gables. Planting date is Thursday, February 20th, 2020 starting at 9:00. We should be done by 11:30. Anyone that wants to go can e-mail me so I can organize the volunteers. grovehomes@gmail.com
Sean reported that Slow Foods will have a planting on Nov 16th and 17th from 9:00 – 2:30 at the South Point Elementary school on South Beach. Please contact Sean at grovehomes@gmail.com if you are interested in helping out.
Lolly Anderson, Margaret Hoeveler and Sean Reichert were there. Margaret took all the pictures. This was a collaboration with Slow Food Miami & Whole Foods Coral Gables & Pinecrest Stores for a National campaign. This is the first time in over 80 years any type of agriculture has been brought back to Vizcaya.
It's life itself that's the marvelous gift
Marjory Stoneman Douglas, a renowned environmental activist, emphasizes the intrinsic value and wonder of existence. She reminds us that life is precious and should be embraced wholeheartedly. From the smallest organisms to the vastness of human existence, life, in all its forms, evokes awe and admiration. The connections we share with the natural world further amplify the splendor of this gift. She encourages us to appreciate the beauty of life and to cultivate compassion towards all living things.
