Priya Sharma
Priya is a soil scientist at an agricultural extension office who gardens on a quarter-acre suburban lot in Indianapolis. Her professional work focuses on soil health and nutrient management, which gives her a perspective most gardening writers don't have—she thinks about what's happening underground before worrying about what's happening above it. Priya maintains a large pollinator garden, grows herbs and vegetables, and is slowly converting her conventional lawn to a mix of native grasses and low-growing groundcovers. She writes about soil health, composting, fertilizer use, and building the kind of foundation that makes plants thrive without constant intervention.
