For those of you who haven’t heard of tiny houses, they are typically no more than 500 square feet and can be built on a trailer or foundations (something that can play an important role in your landscaping). Let’s take a look at some aspects of maintaining the land for your tiny home that you’ll need to consider; as well as tools you might want to have on hand to do the job right!

To help put that all into perspective, we interviewed soil expert, Cristina da Silva on Corona’s Green Industry Leaders Network, #plantchat podcast series.

After chatting with gardeners over the years, one topic they can't get enough of is fruit trees.
