Topics, Pillar Categories & Editorial Standards We Welcome

At Amaral Farm, our readers are hands-on home gardeners, backyard orchardists, urban patio and container growers, and small-scale family homesteaders looking for practical, field-tested advice they can trust. When pitching or preparing your guest article, we especially welcome deeply researched, step-by-step guides across our five core editorial pillars:

• Organic & Heirloom Vegetables: Living soil preparation, indoor and outdoor seed starting, companion planting combinations, raised bed and container vegetable growing, regional seasonal planting calendars (especially warm-climate and Zone 9b gardening), harvesting cues, and open-pollinated seed saving.
• Ornamental Flowers & Flowering Bulbs: Planting depths, pre-chilling, and post-bloom care for spring and summer bulbs (tulips, daffodils, dahlias, hyacinths, peonies, crocus, Dutch iris, and amaryllis), pollinator sanctuary design, color-themed flower beds, and cut-flower gardening.
• Natural Pest & Weed Control: Non-toxic Integrated Pest Management (IPM), attracting beneficial predatory insects, botanical sprays like cold-pressed neem oil and castile soap, physical row covers and collars, and chemical-free weed suppression.
• Backyard Fruit Trees & Berries: Subtropical, Mediterranean, and low-chill temperate fruit trees, organic citrus care, avocados, loquats, pomegranates, figs, olives, apples, blackberries, and winter strawberries.
• Homestead Livestock: Raising heritage chickens, laying ducks, geese, dairy goats, hair sheep, and homestead rabbits humanely for fresh eggs, milk, pasture management, and garden compost fertility.

How to Pitch Your Gardening Article to Our Editorial Team
