WHO DOES THIS?! I woke up to my Atlantic Giant Pumpkins SMASHED and I got it all on video.

They'd made it 4+ months and I couldn't move back under fence due to how the vines grew.

Unless you're a gardener you don't understand the devastation. WE PUT OUR LIFE INTO THESE PLANTS!

EPIC NEWS: We launched a NEW YouTube channel with Shannie McCabe called Florida Food Forest. She's been featured on the channel a few times in our monthly planting guides and has a BA in Environmental Horticulture and Sustainable Agriculture, and used to work for Baker Creek Heirloom Seed Company, traveling the globe discovering new growing methods and varieties.

On her channel, she'll be documenting subtropical gardening and the build out of her 1 acre food forest in central Florida with her husband and newborn child. If that climate is similar to yours, I highly recommend going over and subscribing! Even if it's not, you'll love her approach to growing. Link in pinned comment!

Keep on growing,
Kevin

The original Epic Gardening house was DEMOLISHED! If you're a long-time Epic Gardening follower, you'll remember that my first outdoor growing space was a small front yard urban garden in a home I rented near downtown San Diego.

Well, it's COMPLETELY GONE. The only memories left of this house now live on in early videos on this YouTube.

Buying a home in 2020 was my way to explore larger growing ambitions, an urban homesteading approach, and prevent situations like this from happening. It's funny how it's bittersweet to see a home you didn't even own and haven't lived in for 5 years get destroyed.

THE EPIC SEED LINE. A heavily-curated line of 40 seeds, selected for flavor, compact growth, and pest & disease resistance. Just what you need, nothing you don't. We made this for all of the beginner gardeners out there, which is exactly where I was 13 years ago when I started gardening - confused at a nursery wondering what seeds to buy. Pretty crazy to have our own line of seeds just a decade later. All thanks to YOU who watch us. Thank you thank you, and hope you love the line. Keep on growing, Kevin

Hey everyone - I don't normally do this as I hate to overly promote stuff to you all, but wanted to let you know that there's about 24hr left on our big Black Friday / Cyber Monday sale. I haven't said anything about it yet and I'm getting some "knowing glances" from the team, so here's the rub:

Most of the stuff on our store is 30% off. Even the large Birdies Raised Beds, our seed starting trays, grow bags, and more. It's objectively the largest % discount we offer, unless we accidentally ordered too many and have to clearance them out (which happened once and made me cry so much I watered my garden with the tears).

BUT, the wildest part of the sale this year is that any purchase over $300 (which is inclusive of the 30%+ discount) will also get a starter pack of our Epic Trays. The thing is...it's actually more than a starter pack, it's basically all the seed starting trays you'd need as a beginner gardener:

(2) of our 1020 Universal Bottom Trays, which fit any common tray even if it's not ours.
(12) of our Epic 6-Cell Trays, the tray that started it all.
(8) of our Epic 4-Cell Trays, larger and better for starting bigger plants like melons or cucumbers.

The beauty of this is that 12 Epic 6-Cell Trays fit in 1 Universal Bottom Tray, and 8 Epic 4-Cell Trays ALSO fit in 1 Universal Bottom Tray. So you get to "taste the rainbow" with our trays and will have the ability to start 104 different seedlings across the two trays. I know that was a lot of numbers, the bottom line is we sell that normally for $84.99 and gardeners buy it all year long. So why we're giving it away for free along with 30%+ off is kind of a mystery, but I rely on our Epic Finance team to answer that for me.

I'll drop the link to the sale in the comments, go check it out if you're in the market. You can basically outfit your garden at a fraction of the cost now vs. waiting to spring, when we are really unlikely to offer anything close to this % off.

Hope you had a great holiday weekend - I certainly did. Ate my fair share of food, slept, and planned a ton of incredible gardening videos I want to make for you all next year.

Keep on growing,
Kevin

4 years ago, a weird pumpkin avatar slid into my DMs and asked if I had just moved into its neighborhood. I noticed the screen name, it had the name of an old French guy, Jacques.

Even though I feared for my life, I invited this old French guy with a pumpkin avatar over to my house to try out some of these new seed trays I had just received.

To my surprise, a late 20s Bulgarian man came over, wearing a straw hat of all things...

I gave him a few of these new seed trays I was trying out and told him to let me know what he thought.

Later that week, I posted about needing some help in the garden, and wouldn't you know it but Jacques through his straw hat into the ring, and thus began a new chapter at Epic Gardening.

Within 5 months, Jacques quit his PhD program to work full-time with me, and we developed his YouTube channel, instagram, and elevated his role here at epic. He's done just about everything, from staffing the warehouse, to unloading containers, to horticultural research, to product development and feedback.

AND TODAY IS HIS BIRTHDAY!

I couldn't be more grateful to have him on the team and as a friend. So let's go wish this mysteriously named garden hermit who I've never seen outside without a straw hat on a big happy birthday! ‪@jacquesinthegarden‬
