I am excited to announce the launch of The Online Gardening School.
2 years ago I launched my first online gardening video course on Udemy.com. Since that time I have filmed and published 5 more courses. Udemy is a great online education platform but I have always wanted to host my courses on my own site. Now I’m excited that it is finally a reality. The Online Gardening School is live and accepting new students!! Just go to www.onlinegardeningschool.com
We have a total of 6 video courses on The Online Gardening School:
Year Round Gardening
Seed Starting Simplified
The Beginners Guide to Vegetable Gardening
PVC Drip Irrigation
Growing Tomato Heaven
5 crops to grow for your Food Storage
You will love this new site! This will be the perfect place to learn and also to establish a community of gardening students!
Hosting my courses on my own site allows me to do several new things:
- I have a long list of shorter courses I would like to film. These courses will cover one topic, for example: Growing Potatoes. These courses will be around 1 hour long and I feel like $10 is a good price for a course like that. But Udemy wont let me charge that little. So now a whole world of new topics opens up to us. Students will even be able to request topics!
- Master courses – I will also now be able to film much longer “master courses”. These will be longer more valuable courses.
- Community – Students on The Online Gardening School will be able to join our Facebook group where they can ask questions, share successes and all become better gardeners!
- Package deals – I can now offer more specials and group courses together and sell them as packages!
If you can’t tell, I’m pretty excited about this change!
What does this mean to those of you that already own some of my courses on Udemy? Nothing! There will be no change to the courses on Udemy, you will continue to watch your courses there and have full access. Any updates I make to the courses will be made on both sites. I will also continue to add many courses to both sites, but there will be a few of the courses that will only be available at The Online Gardening School. Should you decide you would like to move your ownership of your Udemy courses to The Online Gardening School, contact me at rick@ourstoneyacres.com and we can take care of it for a very small transfer fee ($1 per course).
