About our instructor: "My name is Tyler, and for the past six years at SummerWinds, I’ve had the privilege of immersing myself in the world of gardening, a passion that has brought me immense joy and fulfillment. My journey into gardening began later in life, at the age of 29, with a humble onion that sprouted unexpectedly in my kitchen. When I decided to plant it and watched it bloom into a stunning flower, I was instantly hooked. That moment sparked a deep, enduring love for gardening within me, and every day since then has been a celebration of that newfound passion."
