Welcome to the Community Roots Ohio Blog where we talk about what we're growin' and showin'. We love sharing our passion for all things seeds, soils, gardens, and more! Through our blog, we hope to share all that is happening around our greenhouses and gardens and to inspire one gardener to another. If you're interested in volunteering with us, please check out our volunteer page!
