Keep the garden you love, in the climate we actually got. We can't fix the climate from here. We can change how we garden in it.

JOIN THE CLUB
1. Kill your lawn. It's a thirsty rug you mow, and it doesn't love you back.
2. Catch the rain. Steal it before the ground does. Free water, peak smugness.
3. Bury an olla. Let a 2,000 year old clay pot out water your sprinkler with 70% less.

The Whole IDEA
MORE ABOUT CARRIE
I'm Carrie. Certified Master Gardener, Master Beekeeper, autistic, and deeply pro second breakfast.
I run a two-acre farm in the high desert on a fraction of the water a garden's supposed to need. Drought Club is the thing I wished existed when I started: proof you can keep the garden you love without pretending the climate didn't change. I share what actually works, grow more than this climate should allow, and turn the harvest into skincare and honey. You bring the lawn you're ready to quit.
I'm obsessed with bees, lavender, and chamomile tea from the garden
WHO'S IN CHARGE HERE
Phyllis N.
People who buy their honey at the grocery store instead of a beekeeper have no idea what they're missing.
"Grocery store honey doesn't compare to the flavor of this raw honey at all."
Nancy R.
Overhead watering made it worse and learning how to water more effectively and in the soil helped.
"These water tips were the end to powdery mildew on my zucchini."
Debbie T.
It sounded made up. My tomatoes survived while I took a summer vacation.
"The olla thing actually works and saves a ton of water in the garden."
