COLUMBUS, Ohio – As the number of new coronavirus cases increases, you may be looking for outdoor activites that you can do on your own to keep busy.
Tisa Watts said she decided to follow her dream two years ago. She moved back home to Ohio from California to open the Columbus Garden School.
“I love being outside. I love not working at a desk. I like watching things grow. I like being able to harvest the things that I grow and to eat the things that I grow,” Watts said.
She also loves to teach and holds classes at her home which operates as the school.
“The nights are getting colder and the days are getting shorter and now is the perfect time to get out in the garden and finish picking all of your summer vegetables like tomatoes, peppers, eggplants and green beans. They will not survive the frost. Most of them need to be picked and brought in to the house now,” she said.
The last seven months have brought challenges and changes to her business. Before the pandemic she would host a dozen people in each of her in-person classes. Now, those classes have a limit of six people per class, but utilizing the internet allows her to share her experience with people all over the world.
