The Natural Gardeners: Jane and John Dromgoole
As a new gardener, long before Central Texas Gardener germinated, I always tuned in to John Dromgoole’s Gardening Naturally radio program on NewsRadio KLBJ. I never imagined that one day I’d be in John and wife Jane’s garden with the CTG team on a December morning, watching John pitch balls to their rescued dog, Lobo.
John’s an organic gardening trailblazer with deep roots in Austin’s nursery business, opening The Natural Gardener in 1993. As CTG grew, he joined us for Backyard Basics, captivating generations of gardeners with his sound advice and memorable wit.
The Dromgooles brought their work home with them as they built their house, gardens, and outdoor living retreats, passing along knowledge from every hands-on project with passion and practicality. Animal rescue advocates always, playful dog Lobo supervises current home operations.
David Stalker, garden advisor and handyman, brings his expertise to every project. This berm, accented with John’s scavenged rock sculpture, hosts plants
