Welcome to Growing with NJ Garden Teacher!
I’m Sonya, a garden educator, a former special education teacher, and a proud Jersey girl on a mission to grow food, flowers, and have a life full of purpose.

I’m in my 50s, navigating perimenopause, spinal degeneration, and reduced mobility in my hands, and I still garden with joy every day I can. My channel is about gardening, using accessible tools, and real-life growing through chronic pain, life transitions, and everything in between.

Whether you’re brand new to gardening, living with a disability, or just trying to reconnect with nature and yourself, you’re in the right place.
