Shannon McKee is an urban gardener that has been gardening seriously for over ten years now. Much to her husband’s chagrin, every year it seems like her once little patch of the backyard gets bigger and bigger. She’s always looking for ways to get the most out of her garden without spending a fortune. She focuses mostly on vegetables, but a few flowers and fruits pop up in her yard here or there. There’s nothing better in her mind than heading out to the garden and making a healthy snack to enjoy during the day. As a stay at home mom who works from home, she de-stresses by getting her hands dirty.
Shannon has been a professional writer for over seven years now, and always enjoys getting to write about topics she’s passionate about in her own life. One of her biggest strengths as a gardener and writer is that she loves researching new things and trying to always learn something new. She enjoys stretching her mind to be able to learn more about how to be a better gardener and writer. You can find her at her blog about working at home, whyiwah.blogspot.com.
