In the Garden | The Gardening Learning Curve with Kevin Espiritu

Welcome back to In the Garden with Flower Hill Farm, where we dig into the beauty, rhythms, and practical magic of growing a garden you love. Join Nicole from Flower Hill Farm for thoughtful conversations, seasonal inspiration, and real-world gardening wisdom. Powered by Botanical Interests, your trusted source for high-quality seeds and gardening know-how.Whether you are planning your next harvest or looking for ways to make your garden work harder for your family, this show is your invitation to grow with intention.

In this episode, Nicole sits down with Kevin Espiritu, the founder and CEO of Epic Gardening, to trace his journey from a ten-dollar domain name to a gardening education company that makes growing accessible for millions. Together, they trade hard-won lessons from years of building their gardening platforms, covering everything from the practical (what’s the best way to fill those tall raised beds?) to the humbling realization that sometimes the simplest approach beats all the fancy techniques combined.

Kevin shares what's driving him lately: prioritizing his health and transforming his garden bounty into nourishing meals. Meanwhile, Nicole confesses that she’s dreaming of the spring thaw while her garden sleeps under a blanket of snow.

Whether you're considering a career in gardening, hunting for lazy-gardener shortcuts, or just love the life lessons that grow alongside the tomatoes, this conversation is for you.
