About Me

Lionel Dubois

Lionel Dubois
I’ve always had a soft spot for the quiet magic of plants—how they bend toward the sun, how their roots tangle beneath the soil, and how even the most stubborn weeds find a way to thrive. My childhood summers were spent helping my grandfather in his garden in upstate New York, where he’d teach me that gardening isn’t just about growing things; it’s about patience, curiosity, and a little bit of stubbornness. This site is where I share the lessons I’ve learned, the experiments I’ve tried (and sometimes failed at), and the joy of watching something green and alive take shape in your hands.
