Patti Moreno

Founder, Garden Girl TV and Urban Sustainable Living
Roxbury, Mass.

Patti Moreno, 38, aka “The Garden Girl,” wants to sow the seeds of
inspiration and get everyone growing organic veggies and living a more
self-sustaining life. In her how-to videos and on her websites, Garden Girl TV and Urban Sustainable Living,
she demystifies gardening (indoor and out), raising chickens, shearing
rabbits, spinning wool, cooking, and even aquaculture. Before you know it,
her infectious enthusiasm could have you not just building raised
garden beds but considering goat adoption. Watch Garden Girl videos on Grist.
