Edible kitchen garden design, installation and health coaching with Katie Oglesby

HI THERE!

I’m Katie, the Garden Girl and I help people create beautiful culinary gardens in Walworth County, Wisconsin. There’s nothing better than infusing freshly harvested ingredients into your home cooked meals and my gardens make it fun and easy to elevate your diet and your life.

A healthy garden leads to a healthier you.

As a garden consultant and a certified health coach, my specialty is designing gardens that help you reach your health and lifestyle goals. Green, growing things can lift your spirits, functional outdoor spaces make it easier to be active, and I’ve personally seen how gardens can bring families closer together (even if it’s just around the kitchen table, wondering what on EARTH to do with a rutabaga).

Gardens truly are a way to heal your body, clear your mind, nourish your soul, and love your life.

Join me on a garden-centered path to health.

I can’t say enough positive things about Katie’s health coaching. She combines her passion for positively contributing to people’s lives, with her diverse skills and education. She is incredibly patient, and without question has adjusted her coaching to suit what I could manage at that time. Katie has helped me create and achieve short and long term goals, step outside of my comfort zone and challenge myself, and to get back up and try again. I can’t wait to see the positive impact her coaching continues to have on me as we continue our work together.

My husband and I have had a small garden for the last five years. We had a challenging season in 2018, and opted out of growing one in 2019. Katie motivated me to try again this year. With her education and guidance, our garden has prospered. Katie’s perspective on educating others to grow their own food, along with supporting local farmers, is inspiring! Thanks to her suggestions on everything from growing methods to protecting your plants from wildlife, Now I’m experiencing the joy of watching plants that we’ve never planted before blossom into food; Katie has brought back the joy of gardening for me!

Eric & Jessica

Katie is the real deal. Over the years she has modeled total wellness (body, mind, soul) through her everyday actions. She has inspired me to reach deeper and higher in all of those areas myself. Simply hanging out in her kitchen has taught me cleaner eating habits. Her appetite for growth encourages me to keep seeking and learning. All of which helps me keep living the life I want. Once you decide you want real change that will last, Katie can help guide you on that journey!

I am a 44yr old, two-time cancer survivor, business owner and mother of two very busy children. I decided to take Katie's pilates-based roll and restore class after the completion of the chemotherapy phase of my treatment. I had several complications along with my treatment including two surgical procedures and was desperate to find something to not only build back my strength. get more flexible but also get rid of the aches I was waking up to daily. This class was everything I needed. There were several people attending that were clearly more fit than me. I was, however, able to modify some of the routine to fit my ability until I got stronger. Within two weeks my aches faded away. I got stronger every class. Even my physical therapist was shocked by my range of motion and strength. It also did wonders to clear my mind, giving me additional mental health and strength.
