INTRODUCING
Garden Coach Society
Where You Launch & Scale Your Garden Coaching Business In 90 Days (or less)
LAUNCH MY GARDEN COACHING BUSINESS
“The Garden Coach Society helped me skip so many hurdles in setting up my business. GCS gave me the confidence and tools for my company to gross so much that it paid back my investment in GCS almost 50 times over in just one year, even in a climate that has a true winter!”
- Jamie Brennan, Gold Feather Gardens
Ever wish you could turn your love for gardening into...
Wondering if ‘garden coaching’ is even a (profitable) thing?
(BTW...it totally is)
I’d never thought I could make money off of my gardening knowledge.
"Hearing Nicole talk about the possibilities of garden-based business blew my mind! I’d never thought I could make money off of my gardening knowledge. Suddenly my baby flower business had all kinds of growth potential, and I knew Nicole’s training would set me up for long term success."
- SARAH LANDERS
Because here’s what you should know...
The U.S. gardening industry is worth $150 Billion in 2021 alone
Here’s the exact breakdown
$50b in products ➕ $100b in services
Source: National Association of Landscape Professionals
And it’s on a rapid move. Up. (#thanksCovid19)
Which is great news for the industry...
But …here’s the problem and a profitable opportunity (keep reading)
While the garden industry is blooming booming.
The average person, down the street in their suburban (or urban) neighborhood, does not know HOW TO garden.
Because if they did, they wouldn’t have bought into the industry’s false promises such as:
Ultimately resulting in setting up a less-than-optimal garden, experiencing double the setbacks, and calling it quits with the single declaration that’s killed more gardening dreams than the boston ferns:
“I’m not doing this because I don’t have a green thumb.”
Invariably leading to
(hint: the problem)
The Garden Industry Gap
Because what people want NOW more than ever is (besides products and the usual lawn mowing services)….
Without reading how-to articles, watching tutorials on YouTube, signing up for DIY gardening projects, or wishing for a magical gardening gene in their bodies.
💡 FUN FACT: According to a recent “Gardening Insights” marketing survey, people spent 42%more time gardening in 2020, and that number is on an increase for the foreseeable future.
Therein lies the opportunity that has the potential to fill this unaddressed gap
(a gap which only YOU can fill, my friend)
THE OPPORTUNITY TO:
To clients who HAVE the time & willingness but don’t necessarily have the skills or guidance of an expert to help them
And If You Want To Launch & Scale
A Garden Coaching Business In 90 Days ...
You need access to these 4 critical elements for growth
(You get all Four in Garden Coach Society - more about that in a moment)
Robust Training:
It’s one thing to have a passion for gardening, the skills, or the self-perceived ‘green thumb’ to get started in this industry.
But it’s a whole different skill set, training, and experience to build a business from the ground up, and grow and scale it.
From getting your legal ducks in a row to hiring, financials, developing your offer suite, and communicating with clients - it’s imperative to have your bases covered.
And a strong business foundation will set you apart from someone who’s never been on a client site to someone who confidently knows their way around.
The Society Helped Me Make a Shift in My Business
“You have to get paid for your time. No more free estimates. We're not a landscaping company. That's the big shift I had. I'm a garden consultant and I charge for my time.”
- KELLY CROTTY
Community:
Imagine a private community populated with other garden coaches building their businesses alongside yours.
No more doing this alone. Struggling with self-doubt. Or having no one to talk to who simply ‘gets it.’
Because here’s the thing... Left alone to your devices, it’s easy to flounder, procrastinate, and ultimately give up on your entrepreneurial dreams.
Being part of a community of like-minded people who’ve got skin in the game (and dirt under their nails), genuinely want to see you succeed, and are there for you when you want to bounce ideas, share successes, and lift your tanking spirits when things don’t work out - is the space you keep coming back to when you need to refuel your ‘go-getter’ tank.
“.”
- LaTasha Harrell
Mentorship:
Whether it’s questions on design installations, pricing your minimum viable product, or your latest Netflix fix - be rest assured that you can lean on a group of strong mentors for answers.
Feedback that’s experience-rich and data-backed can get you unstuck within minutes, instead of partying with your (self) doubts in your brain (which never works!)
Case in point: I (Nicole) bring my 6 years of experience, training, and all the lessons rom launching and scaling two multi-six figure businesses - while raising four kids.
Trust me, I can handle what you’ve got 😊
You'll have the foundation for a great business
“The weekly meetings with Nicole and seeing all the other coaches and the support during those calls is what I love the most about the program. I also like the layout of setting up the coaching business. When it is followed you’ll have the foundation for a great business.”
- CANDICE CULLEN
Authority:
The quickest way to get validation... followed by a “when can we get started?” in the early stages as a garden coach?
Three words. Third-party validation.
(Or are those two words? IDK - I’m a gardener and coach.)
If a credible source talks about you and your business it opens tightly shut doors with more ease.
Especially if that credible source features over 100s of certified garden coaches so they can connect with other industry professionals and excited clients.
And not just a “graduate from the program, send us a link to your website, and a pretty headshot” kinda deal that collects digital dust in the interwebs and is sadly forgotten.
But an active platform that’s hit with 50,000 of qualified views on the daily, increasin your chances of getting seen, contacted, and hired in your local area.
*Time for a humble brag*
I do all of this and more...just ask my students 😊
In case we haven’t met...
Hey there!
I’m Nicole Burke.
Mom of 4, home gardener, dog lover, and a published author.
Founder of Rooted Garden, Inc. and Gardenary, Inc. - two companies in the garden industry with different business models and services.
You may have seen me on
But here’s what lights me up more than anything...
And that is seeing women & men start profitable garden consulting businesses so they can:
- Support their families doing something they love
- Create a positive impact in the community, the environment, and the world at large
- Inspire confidence in their clients...along the lines of “You sooo don’t need a green thumb to do this” (because you really don’t!)
Just 5 years ago, I was desperate for a mentor in this industry. I flew all the way to California and paid someone $500 to sit with me for an hour and give me advice. The whole trip cost me over $2000, and all I got was an hour's worth of advice.
I created the Garden Coach Society to offer YOU what I couldn't find myself.
In fact, I’ve helped more than 500 garden coaches launch a new career, a side hustle, or scale an existing garden business to high revenue levels.
Meet some of our successful graduates
Nothing else compares
“Garden Coach Society opened my eyes to a whole new way of creating an income doing what I love.
I have run another small business for 4 years and have taken other online courses for business and marketing, but none have been as comprehensive as Garden Coach Society. I have even taken things I’ve learned in this course and gone back and made changes in my other (unrelated to gardening) business. It really is that good. Worth the investment!”
- KEELY MASSIE, Appalachian Kitchen Gardens
Totally worth it!
“I joined the Garden Coach Society in May, and I am stunned by the amount of support, information, and advice that I have found here!
Nicole goes above and beyond in the support and tools she provides her Garden Coaches. If you are on the fence about investing in this program, go for it! It will totally be worth it.”
- MEGAN WAKEFIELD, Walking Wild Herbs
Member for life!
“Have you been in a place where you know where you want to go but not sure how to get there?
That was me.
I knew I wanted to teach people how to garden and install it for them but did not know how to do it or how to get started. Garden Coach Society has been an amazing introduction into my life and business.”
- NaTasha McDonald, 31 Eden

Let’s hear it from some of our Garden Coaches
Worth every penny I paid
“Garden Coach Society has been a huge blessing. I never realized how much "business" there is to owning a business! It has stretched me, and I'm still stretching. It has pulled me out of my comfort zone. But the program and the support of the Society is more than I could have dreamed. I only wish I knew about it sooner. I had no idea this was a career possibility. It is worth every penny I paid.”
- CALLIE MURPHY, Learn to Bloom
Signed up clients 2 months in...
“If it wouldn't have been for GCS, I most likely wouldn't have started my business yet. It showed and guided me on the path to finally go for my dream job. Just two months in, I'm already acquiring clients and a co-operation with a local organic seed company.”

From my garden to yours
(a final note)
If you’ve got this far on the page, it’s time to make a decision.
Here’s what I know for sure...
Garden Coach Society is unlike any other program out there.
Trust me, I’ve scanned the landscape (pun intended).
I’ve built two multi-six-figure companies in this industry ( Rooted Garden Inc. & Gardenary Inc.) without external funding, minimal savings, and zero connections.
I know what it's like to have passion, enthusiasm, and the willingness to create something of your own. On your own terms...but not without its challenges such as no roadmap, no community, and no mentor to guide you.
You have dreams.
Dreams to create a profitable business so you can dictate your own hours.
Dreams to create, cultivate community, and guide others.
Dreams to do good in the world and make a difference.
And most importantly...
Dreams of using your love of gardening and getting (handsomely) paid for it.
And if you S T I L L need a loving nudge to be 100% all-in...because you’re worried the numbers won’t add up...I get it.
So let’s have some fun. I promise this is easy and nothing like your high school trig class.
Your investment today is $487 (followed by five monthly payments of $487).
Or a single payment of $2497.
Now let’s say you sell your first consult for $500 or 5 consults at $500.
And you can accomplish this within 30-90 days.
That’s a positive return on your investment (especially if you opted for the payment plan).
Amazing, right?
And if entrepreneurship is not your thing but you still love gardening and working with clients, all isn’t lost - you can come work for Gardenary Inc. as a virtual garden coach.
As a Gardenary certified consultant, you'll have priority access to work from home and provide Gardenary garden consulting to clients all over the country.
Win-win!
Whatever your dream is, we’re here to help you flourish.
See you on the other side.
