I’m Sophie!

Nice to meet you and welcome to my happy space. I am the brain behind “The Houston Gardener.” Just like you, I love gardening, or even better, it helps me with stress management. For years, I have struggled with depression and mood swings. And busy moms like me, often find it hard to pursue a hobby without losing their minds. Gardening to me is more like a therapeutic approach than a hobby. It uplifts my senses and gives me a satisfying feeling of achievement. More than anything, I feel ecstatic when I am in my green zone a.k.a #nostress zone.

Professionally, I am a digital marketer. But from inside, I am a true farmer. While in my gardening space, I love the feel of dirt between my fingers, soak in the smell of earth, and enjoy the pure bliss of my edible or indoor Houston garden. 

And because you’re here, I am happy to share my favorite ways to garden in this Texan city. Let’s start here.
