Kathleen Dayberry is a dedicated gardener and co-owner of the Home and Harvest Hub website, where she and her husband (Kenneth) share their passion for suburban homesteading and sustainable gardening in Florida’s challenging sandy soils.

With almost a decade of hands-on experience, Kathleen has mastered the art of transforming nutrient-poor filler soils into thriving garden beds using organic methods like compost, Mel’s Mix, and the cut and drop composting technique. A proud Florida transplant, she draws on her deep knowledge of the state’s climate, her acquired knowledge of the sub-climate of the Space Coast, and native plants to help gardeners grow vibrant vegetables, flowers, and fruit trees.

When not tending her lush backyard garden in Central Florida or writing practical guides, Kathleen inspires her community of like-minded followers through her website and social media presence at homeandharvesthub.com.
