Many of you know that a few years ago I was approached by gardening guru, author, and TV garden personality Joe Lamp’l to create a collaborative all-video, on line course on all things tomato - Growing Epic Tomatoes. Of course I enthusiastically said “YES!” - and we set out to create the course throughout most of 2021. It was relaunched in late winter last year, incorporating new material. Both seasons were great successes, with lots of enthusiastic students providing glowing reviews.
Well, Joe thought it was time to make this course available for anyone, at any time to purchase and enjoy. It is now “evergreen”!
To help you decide if this is for you, I want to provide some information on exactly what this course actually entails. It sits on a platform (Teachable) as a set of Modules (essentially covering the entire season, from planning to seed saving and even recipes) that are broken down into individual self paced video lessons. The modules are substantial - most run between 1-2 hours long.
As you watch lessons you can submit questions - Joe and I both monitor the questions and provide responses within a day or two. You will also be able to see the previously asked questions and responses. There are also specialized topic bonus modules to peruse, as well as two growing seasons-worth of the Office Hours sessions that Joe and I do each Friday for up to 90 minutes each, where we answer pre-submitted questions from our students. You will even be able to watch this year’s incredible blind tasting which we’ve talked about often in our Instagram Live sessions!
Finally, our students have access to a very special, exclusive Online Gardening Academy Community with a private space just for Growing Epic Tomato students. Once you are in, you are in forever - all students from the previous two years are there and actively posting and sharing. There are numerous student-created discussion threads, the chance to post pictures, ask questions and receive answers not only from Joe and me, but other students as well. I am in there daily contributing my own posts and commenting upon other posts, as well as answering questions - as is Joe. This is a lot of access to us both!
Joe priced this course at 397.00 (with a discount to 247.00 - 150.00 off - for those who registered during our launch period each late winter). This new Evergreen launch is set at that lower price - 247.00. As just about all of our students have related to us, it is quite a bargain for all that you get (the way I think about it - that could be the cost of a case of good wine - or one raised bed planter - however, this is a combined 80 years of tomato growing knowledge with continuous access to not only Joe and me, but our other students). As we create additional bonus modules, they will become available with no additional charge. Even better - there is a 15 day money back guarantee starting at the day you purchase. You can give the course a thorough test drive - if you decide it is not for you, a full refund will happen on request.
I am really proud of the course that Joe and I put together. I am delighted with the feedback we’ve received from our students. And, I am very happy that it is now available to purchase and take any time that it works for you.
