Mel Bartholomew

About Mel

Graduate of Georgia Tech in Civil Engineering. Built his own Consulting Engineering Firm specializing in site and utility design.

Was nominated to be included in Who's Who, Congress Hall of Fame, and New Jersey Famous Engineers.

Retired as a successful innovator and businessman in his field at the age of 42.

Took up gardening as a hobby, but then set out to solve the frustrations of most gardeners, "To replace the traditional wasteful single row gardening method with a better way to garden, one that's more efficient, more manageable, and less work." His answer was to invent the Square Foot Gardening system.

His first book "Square Foot Gardening" became America's largest selling gardening book ever, over a million copies sold.

His Square Foot Gardening TV series ran on PBS, Discovery Channel, and Learning Channel for eight years—winter shows filmed at Disney World in Orlando, Florida, and then retired again.

Left retirement a second time to create the non-profit Square Foot Gardening Foundation, to bring better gardening to all people of all ages, around the world, including an innovative "Garden in Every School program."

Mel continues to write, teach, motivate and inspire.
