The Beginner’s Garden Collection is your go-to starter kit, featuring a vibrant Sunflower Mix, versatile Tomato Mix, crisp Lettuce Mix, fragrant Fennel, and protein-rich Scarlet Runner Bean. Each variety is chosen for its reliability, ease of care, and rewarding harvest—perfect for gardeners taking their first steps into growing their own food.

Where Can You Grow
These sun-loving crops thrive in full sun with well-drained, fertile soil. Sow in pots, raised beds, or garden rows. Ensure consistent moisture, and provide support (stakes or cages) for tomatoes and beans.

History and Historical Uses

Sunflower Mix: Native to North America; seeds used as a nutritious snack and oil source.

Tomato Mix: Heirloom and modern varieties prized for salads, sauces, and canning.

Lettuce Mix: Ancient Mediterranean greens, long valued for fresh salads and garnishes.

Fennel: Roman and Greek staple for its aromatic seeds and crunchy bulb.

Scarlet Runner Bean: Andean heirloom grown for vibrant flowers and tender pods.

Canadian Zone Information

Zones 2–9: Start tomatoes and fennel indoors 6–8 weeks before last frost; direct-sow sunflowers, lettuce, and beans after danger of frost has passed.


How to Grow and Harvest

Sowing: Sow bean and sunflower seeds 1–2 in deep; lettuce and fennel ¼ in deep; start tomatoes ¼ in deep in trays.

Spacing: Thin lettuce to 6 in apart; beans and sunflowers 4–6 in apart; fennel plants 12 in apart; tomatoes 18–24 in apart.

Support & Maintenance: Stake tomato seedlings; provide poles or trellis for Scarlet Runner Beans; thin lettuce for airflow; pinch fennel blooms for bulb development.

Harvest: Pick lettuce leaves young; harvest beans when pods are tender; cut sunflowers at full bloom; harvest fennel bulbs at golf-ball size; enjoy tomatoes at peak colour.

Seed Saving Tips for Future Supply

Isolation: Space tomatoes and beans at least 10 ft apart to maintain purity.

Collection: Allow bean pods and sunflower heads to dry fully on the plant; let lettuce and fennel flowers mature for seed.

Cleaning & Storage: Thresh or rub seeds free of chaff; winnow if needed; store airtight in a cool, dark place.

Camino memories relived
Format: Paperback
I returned from my first Camino trip and I was wanting to stay in touch with everything related to the Camino - the friends I made there, movies on YouTube, and podcasts. It was from the podcast that I learned about Brad. He has been a constant companion to me, as I went through my own Camino 'withdrawl.' Luckily for me, after a couple of weeks from been back from the Camino, I am already able to schedule my next one. Brad's book brought back all the memories, and he put into great narrative and humor all the amazing and magical things that happen during the Camino, including also the challenges, the crying and the laughing. I am very grateful for this book.

Greatly enjoyed this book.

His long journey of self discovery is well told, with sprinkles of humor throughout. It made me long to take a pilgrimage of my my own.

Soccer, Songs and Sex
Format: Paperback
Heading to the Camino myself....I've been reading other accounts of it, more so since my plans have had to be put on hold due to COVID19. I purchased a pile of recommendations from others on a social media site, sat up one night, researching the favorites of others. My list only had those that had humor! Brad's book has humor and I love that he, being a songwriter, utilized his talent for putting sentences together, creating a canvas of texture with descriptions, which kept me turning pages. I loved reading about his self discovery, his growth through his business, family life, athletic life, social life, and finding a balance eventually, although the reader can certainly see he teetered A LOT! The downside was that he felt it important to share the sexual experiences, of others and himself. TMI, as a generation behind me would say. It wasn't needed. His adventure was fabulous without it. If Brad ever did a rewrite, I would suggest he leave that out so more age groups could be inspired by his journey! It won't be the first book I'd recommend if anyone asked me what to read about Camino adventures, but I won't say not to read it if it comes up in conversation.

Definitely not my favorite
Format: Paperback
It was ok as far as Camino memoirs go. Not my favorite and probably won't reread/listen again, like I have several others. The author seemed to like to make fun of people and objectify women. I kept hoping there'd be some kind of epiphany, but the closest we get is when he is relaying a life changing conversation he'd had with someone the previous evening where he learned he needs to see the good in people, but minutes before he'd spent a lengthy time ranting and complaining and disparaging "plastic pilgrims." I listened to the whole thing because I was hoping for some redemption, but didn't witness any.

Buen camino !
Format: Kindle
This book had me hooked from page one. Brad writes in way that brings every scene, character and emotion to life. I loved that his writing style is so original. He is transparent, honest, funny, and thought provoking. I have had thoughts of one day walking the Camino, The only Way West has made me both terrified and excited to perhaps do it one day. I hope we get to see more of this quirky author. Buen camino!
