How Does Your Garden Grow?

Historically, my attempts to grow anything have been a disaster. But I'm hoping to change all that.

I'm not asking for much, maybe a few tomatoes and some herbs. 

But it's clear that I need some help, because I know close to nothing about growing plants. So I'm relieved to see Green Home Experts launching an online gathering spot for newbie gardeners trying their hand at the "One Heirloom Project," which aims to "encourage urban gardeners to connect as a community through growing the same plant," according to store owner Maria Onesto Moran.
