Are you a DIYer? If so, Better Homes & Gardens Do It Yourself magazine may be the perfect magazine for you. As it happens, I have an article in the Summer 2022 issue, which hits newsstands soon.
My article, “Feeding Body & Soul” on page 94, is about the bountiful and beautiful vegetable garden Nashville homeowners Faith Salmon and Matt Hoiles made. Check it out if you’re interested in growing “food for the table with plenty of eye candy for dessert.”
