Christy Wilhelmi is the driving force behind Gardenerd.com. Her obsession with gardening began in 1996 on the balcony of her Los Angeles, California apartment. She eventually became a member of Ocean View Farms Organic Community Garden in Mar Vista, California and has served on the Board of Directors since 1998. She also wrote, co-directed, edited and hosted a weekly lifestyle television show, The Garden of Life: whole life wellness through gardening, fitness and food. Christy believes that gardening unifies both physical activity and healthy food choices, while providing a grounding spiritual and creative outlet. She has dedicated herself to the study of organic gardening and its benefits, and delights in sharing this information with anyone who will listen. She is your one-stop-shop for gardening resources and information.
Welcome to SeniorGreenCare.com — Where Experience Grows! We’re proud to be the only lawn care, gardening and outdoor lifestyle website created, owned, and operated by senior gardeners, and outdoor enthusiasts over 55.
I am the author of Golden Gate Gardening (Sasquatch Books), a west coast guide to growing vegetables, herbs, fruits, and flowers that centers on the coastal climate of California but is useful inland too. We have a mediterranean climate, which is unique in the U.S. and this guide helps gardeners use it well. I am also the author of Wildly Successful Plants: Northern California, Controlling Vegetable Pests (Environmentally Friendly Gardening series) and Easy Vegetable Gardening Plans, articles for national gardening magazines, and write a monthly gardening column for the San Francisco Chronicle. I blog at goldengategarden.typepad.com. I lecture on gardening topics in the San Francisco Bay Area.
