What’s the best, cheapest way to get the cleanest, highest quality food on Earth? Grow it yourself! Today we chat with Jackie Tarlton about ways to use essential oils to grow food naturally in the backyard garden. Jackie’s passion for gardening began at a young age, relishing the beauty of her grandmother’s flower gardens and her dad’s vegetable gardens. She has been a Master Gardener in Arkansas for more than 13 years. Her love for both organic gardening and natural wellness sparked her interest for using essential oils in the garden. Her book, Essentially Grown: Natural Gardening with Essential Oils, is a culmination of what she has learned about using essential oils in the garden.
