About Me:
Linda Ly runs the award-winning blog Garden Betty, which chronicles her adventures in the dirt and on the road. From her South Bay abode, she shares farm-to-fork recipes, raises backyard chickens, bakes bread and makes jam and still finds time to surf or snowboard or kayak or climb—depending on the season. (So many reasons to heart SoCal!) She's been featured in Country Living, HGTV, and Los Angeles Times, and also contributes to Apartment Therapy and The Kitchn.
