To start, my path to creating this garden blog wasn’t a straight line. But before we dive into my fig gardening journey, here’s a little glimpse of my past: I’m a nursing graduate and also studied mass communication before nursing because I once dreamed of becoming a journalist. With my healthcare skills, I thought I would end up in a greener country. But life, as it often does, had other plans for me. Despite having the education I thought would lead me to my dream career, I found myself questioning the traditional 9-to-5 routine, feeling like I wasn’t happy working outside of my comfort zone.
What I really wanted… was the freedom to follow my passions and create something truly my own.
I firmly believe that I can still make a steady, reliable income—even from the tiniest corner of my home.
Years later, that’s when Figgylicious Garden was born—on our terrace—after many trials and errors in growing different fruit plants. But it was the fig trees that I grew to love the most. I adore figs for three sweet reasons:
A luscious fig garden where I can roam every day, soaking up the early sunlight while connecting with nature 🌱
The freshness, sweetness, and jamminess of my fruit harvests 🌱
Nurturing my Figgylicious Garden blog for a sustainable source of income 🌱
In this way, I feel incredibly free and more blessed than ever!
From Nursing to Gardening: A Journey of Discovery
Like many people, I’ve always had a deep desire to help others. As a nursing graduate, I spent countless hours learning about care and healing. But somewhere along the way, I realized that the type of care I wanted to give wasn’t confined to a hospital. It was in the earth, in the plants, and in the simple act of nurturing something to grow.
At the start, for me, gardening was just a hobby, spending time around for relaxation. I never fully embraced it until I started working on our own terrace garden after someone has introduced me to the taste of a fig that was quite jammy with an amazingly strong berry flavor – that I even wanted for more! From here I started growing fig trees—nurturing them from seedlings to flourishing plants. And it was something I couldn’t shake. My love for gardening began to grow rapidly, and with that, my desire to share my newfound knowledge and love for fig trees with others. Figgylicious Garden became my way of combining my passion for plants with my dream of building a career that felt authentic and fulfilling.
Why Figgylicious Garden? My Mission and Purpose
At Figgylicious Garden, I’m on a mission to inspire others to explore the world of gardening, specifically growing figs! It all started in my small terrace, where I found peace and joy in tending to my plants. I realized that gardening wasn’t just a hobby—it was a lifestyle, a way of reconnecting with nature and finding balance in an otherwise chaotic world.
My goal is simple:
To help anyone, whether you have a huge garden or just a tiny balcony, grow beautiful fig trees and discover the joy of homegrown food.
To show that gardening is not only possible but also accessible to everyone, no matter your experience level.
To share tips, stories, and resources to help you build your own garden paradise and embrace a more sustainable way of living.
A Personal Touch: The Eve Behind Figgylicious Garden
When I’m not in my garden, you’ll find me experimenting with new recipes using fresh produce from my terrace, indulging in my love for photography, or learning new ways to live more sustainably. I truly believe that gardening can be a form of self-care—it’s not just about plants; it’s about creating a space that brings peace, joy, and nourishment to your life.
What started as a small hobby has transformed into a way of life that I now want to share with the world. If I can do it, so can you! 😊
