A Way to Garden

A Way to Garden is an organic gardening blog and podcast run by Margaret Roach, a Hudson Valley-based horticulturist and New York Times garden columnist since 2020. The site covers plant growing guides, composting, native plants, garden design, seed starting, and nature observation — all from a chemical-free perspective. Margaret hosts weekly expert interviews on the podcast and shares seasonal how-to content for home gardeners. She has also published several gardening books and holds garden tours at her 2.3-acre property in New York.
