Grow Your Greens with Ease
Join Melissa K Norris in this step-by-step class to learn exactly HOW to enjoy fresh greens and brassicas during the dormant season. By the time you’re done, you’ll have complete confidence in using cold frames to extend the garden season so your family always has fresh produce at hand!
Over the course of 11 lessons, you’ll understand what supplies you need (hint: there aren’t a lot!), how to choose plants and grow them during the Spring and Fall months using cold frames.
Growing your own food is a fabulous way to eat clean, healthy produce, save money, and of course, enjoy food security.
You don’t have to worry about whether the farmer’s market has green beans or lettuce for your Thanksgiving dinner… because your garden will!
The rising costs of fresh produce won’t hurt your family because your garden season extension skills will ensure you’re eating healthy (and clean!) even on a budget!

Melissa K Norris
Hi! I’m Melissa K. Norris. I’m a proud 5th generation homesteader and grow over 65% of the fruits and vegetables that our family of 4 enjoys all year long.
I’m also the founder of Pioneering Today, the host of the Pioneering Today podcast, and the author of 4 books, including The Family Garden Plan and The Made From Scratch Life.
But it wasn’t always like this.
Growing up, we only planted a summer garden, which mainly consisted of warm weather crops. However, I wanted more fresh vegetables year-round without needing access to a greenhouse.
I’ve done a LOT of experimentation and testing and learned a TON.
Now I can’t wait to share ALL this with you so you can make the most of the space you have to reap rich harvests, regardless of the weather!
Gardening can be rough when you have a 150-day (or less) growing season.
Wish you could grow more, for longer? You can!
By the end of this class, you’ll be ready to:
Thwart Old Man Winter Tuck into salads and other garden favorites before your last frost-date in Spring! Or imagine enjoying crispy carrots, tender spinach and perhaps even fresh, buttery garden potatoes in the winter!
Sow With Confidence Plant those seeds without fear that your efforts will end in frost-kill before it even has a chance to produce those vegetables you’ve been dreaming about all winter long.
Enjoy Harvesting Without Overwhelm Stagger your harvest times through season extensions so that you’re not inundated with a massive amount of harvest (and work!) all at once.
Slash That Grocery Bill Keeping a fresh supply of delicious food coming into the kitchen — year-round — can make a serious dent in your spending!
Improve Your Health Fresh is best! Pack in the nutrients and feel stronger, healthier, and more resilient with the chemical-free food that you pluck from your own garden!
