Gardening Tips

Welcome to the Breezy Acres gardening video series, your go-to resource for beginner vegetable gardening tips right here in Vermont!

Each week, Marilyn from Breezy Acres Garden Center in St. Albans shares practical, easy-to-follow advice to help you grow a vegetable garden you’ll be proud of. From starting seeds indoors to knowing when to plant outside, understanding Vermont’s frost dates, and keeping your garden healthy all season long, this series covers the questions we hear most from gardeners who are just getting started.

Gardening in Vermont comes with its own unique challenges. Our short growing season, unpredictable spring weather, and cool nights mean you need tips that actually work for this climate, not just general advice that doesn’t account for where we live. That’s exactly what this series is designed to give you.

New videos are added every week, so check back regularly and follow along as the season unfolds. If you have a topic you’d love to see covered, stop in and let us know!

We’re located on Route 105 in St. Albans, Vermont, and our garden center is stocked with everything you need to get growing, including vegetable seedlings, annual and perennial plants, mulch, soil, and expert advice you can actually use.
