Depend On Planet Earth

We started with our initial consultation on February 2nd. And here’s an update as of May 9th. We’re taking it slow because this is an elderly client and doesn’t want anything “too fancy” but she is loving all of my recommendations and expert advice. Most importantly she’s growing everything from seed!
Stay tuned for more!

Shout out to everyone who’s reached out to make sure I’m good. Still not at 100% and moving slow but I’m still kicking.

Ok so full transparency here since we’re all friends.

I’m currently dealing with some pretty serious health issues(no need to downplay it)and today I’m nowhere near 100%! I’m not even sure I’m at 50%! But I’m not at 0% thankfully.

I got a lecture this morning from my favorite nurse about what plants need to survive and how I need to apply that to my own life.

So I’m sitting outside with this amazing seed shaker from waiting for it to rain,and also resting.

Thankful for everyone who’s told me “Hey it’s just a temporary setback!” So yea I’m still here,still planting seeds. Just moving a lot slower some days.

All that being said. Where the hell is this rain? Wait…if it starts raining I can’t even move fast enough to not get wet….🤔

Well let me get to shaking then! ✊🏽❤️

You called my writing chicken scratch so I hope you can read this! I wanted to say Happy Birthday! I really wish you were here. Not because I need your help, just because I miss you and I’m not the only one. Yea I know you were only “on loan” to me but I still want an extension. I’m ok really 1 am. I tried to bargain with God (wasn’t winning that) for your life. I obviously didn’t win(dadgumit) but I still would sacrifice any and everything for you without hesitation. Yea Yea I know that’s not how it works...wishful thinking as they say. I just wanted more time because I never got the chance. well that’s not true I had plenty of chances. But I actually never said how much you really mean to me face to face. You’re still my best friend. And if I had a choice it would be you to be my mother every single time. So today I’m going to celebrate /0 years of your lite. I still love you “more than I love Sonic”,
even though that lemor
berry slush is top tier! Put in a word for the Falcons please! Tell Pop I want to go fishing when I see him again (you can fish up there right?) | love you. I miss you. And I’m so thankful God said “Yea these two...they’ll be good together.” ✊🏽❤️ Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace.
Amen
-Geoffrey

It’s been a minute and this is my favorite week of the year so....” Hey..I’m Geoffrey,and here are 10 things about me.”

Disney World is my absolute favorite place! I’ve been about 9 or 10 times.(I’ve lost count) I’ve also done all 4 parks in one day.

I 1000% have the best friends in the world. And they all put up with my short answers and smart a$$ responses.

I love wine. I can’t turn down a glass of Cabernet Sauvignon,Zinfandel,Viognier,Chenin Blanc,or Gewürztraminer

I am a graduate(2003) and proud supporter of Howard University. There is no need for me to even say “The Real HU”❤️💙

This is .me he’s usually the 1st person I talk to every day. Supporter of my good ideas,bad ideas, and all the other ideas in between. When defining what a great friend is/should be his picture pops up!

On 4/18/81 this lady turned 25 and went into labor. On Easter Sunday 4/19/81 around 7:12pm I made my first entrance into the world. Some say I was late…I say I was right on time. She knew me like no other and she knew I didn’t want to take this picture or wear this sweater! Miss you ol girl ❤️

I am a member of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc.l have served several roles and received various awards such as Community Service Chairman, Director Of Educational Activities ,Vice-President,The Brother Of The Year Award, The Brotherhood Community Service Award.💛🖤

For the last 19 years I’ve been an advocate and fundraiser for The March Of Dimes. As I say “Someone has to be a voice for the voiceless.”💜

l’ve been a fan of professional wrestling since I was 3 years old. I travel around the country attending shows. I’m the guy yelling constantly at the referee during the matches.

I love hip hop, and I’m a garden educator, consultant,speaker, and coach. Yes this is my main job, l play in dirt (almost) every day...l’m D.O.P.E.! I’ve been able to provide food for my friends, family, and neighborhood. l’ve been able to teach and inspire people to grow their own food. Sharing the “fruits of my labor” with everyone is the greatest joy for me. Gardening has made me a healthier and a better person inside and out. I live a D.O.P.E. Life!

I’m always up for a challenge!

So this year I’m challenging myself to grow the best tomatoes I’ve ever grown. Now I know my strengths and my weaknesses.

Strengths: I can grow almost anything from seed!

Weaknesses: Growing tomatoes aint my thing! Unless they’re cherry tomatoes.

Soooooo I’ve decided to only grow ONE type of tomato and here it is! Tropical Sunset Pole Cherry.

Now why this variety? Because I’ve never tried them before and they look cool. It’s a simple as that. Wish Me Luck!

Above are my staples that I’m planting today. I’ve got a ton of seeds(big surprise) and the weather is perfect! Not that I’m telling anyone what to do. BUT…if I were you whether you’re a “new”,”now”,or a “not yet” gardener I would plant all of these!

I’ve decided to try some new things this spring.I’m focusing mainly on flowers for the next few days. One of my goals is to grow as many different varieties of sunflowers as possible.

Why? I just really love sunflowers and I’ve got lots of seeds…so Why Not? Unfortunately I won’t be saving any seeds from any of the plants (insert sad face),which is a first for me(insert another sad face).

Wish Me Luck!

What happens when you give me:

Seeds✅ & for the win!

Soil✅ Huge thanks to for their amazing potting soil!

Egg cartons & seed starting trays✅ Yes the trays are very durable because I clearly stood on them and didn’t fall!

A water bottle✅ Almost forgot that one!

A stage,microphone, and an audience✅ Thanks !

You get storytelling ,authenticity,enthusiasm,passion, laughter & of course seeds! Not to mention there is a special group of preschoolers that now have sunflower seeds directly from my garden.

Any chance I get to share my knowledge and love about seeds and plants with anyone is always special to and for me. As I often say if it’s in your heart and on your mind find a way for your hands to make it work.

I’m Geoffrey and I’m a seed guy
