  • Candina's love for gardening began when she brought home a sunflower plant in a paper cup in preschool. However, she now focuses on techniques such as square foot gardening and attracting pollinators.
  • When she's not out working in the garden, she spends her time inside, renovating her home by tackling one 90s-era builder-grade feature at a time.
  • Her intense interest in mushrooms often finds her in the woods at night with a UV flashlight.
