Greetings Future LaNeedA Travelers!
I am grateful for your interest in Utah. It has been a grand experience for me, being that I moved here over 5years ago. I had no idea that I would choose to stay, long-term.
As I mentioned in the video, Cedar City measured to be at 5,846 ft. above sea level. Las Vegas is just over 2k ft. above sea level and I lived there for over ten years.
Both are desert climate, Cedar is high-desert while Vegas is lower desert. At any rate, it can get over 90+ degrees for several days in both locations. Obviously, Las Vegas will stay hot well over three digits for the entire summer season, while Cedar may only get to three digits for a few days mid-summer season.
I compare these two locations because I lived in these climates for multiple seasons, and I really enjoy these natural ecosystems.
I am working on a video project to promote my gardening perspective and skills for people seeking to hire me as their GuarDinner to transform their barren yard to one that is thriving, full of organic life and joyful food for their family.
I started with this gardening ‘bug’, in Las Vegas, which was actually my calling to share the wealth of wellness via gardening to nurture the plant-kingdom, and traveling as well.
Not many people can say and show proof of transforming a desert landscape to a thriving mini-food forest in the back yard. With successful desert-gardening projects under my belt, I am prepared to share this skill and thus be a catalyst to get the sland moving…
I want to add, this greenhouse is still standing however, not used my me any more. I have upgraded to seeking my own land and building a more sustainable design for long-term year round usage. No plastic bubble wrap needed. This was my first time to do gardening in a winter with over 7-mths of below frost temps. Yes, the greenhouse was heated for that time period as well, with a wood stove or electric space heater. You can find similar items by clicking links!
To be frank, I would like some support! The issue with these past desert-garden projects is none of them where on my own property. So, I have yet to see long-term growth results over three-years. There was only one case which I had unlimited access to, and that was the ‘Our GuarDin Space’.
Ultimately, with my own land there is more to do in this area than meets the eye. I would have time to go hiking up in the mountains while the garden grows, plus helping other people transition their garden space would minimize the amount of loose sand and dust in the region.
By the way, many festivals happen in Utah such as the Sundance Film Festival in multiple places in Park City. There is a Hot Air Balloon event but I don’t recall when that happens. I just remember seeing a lot of balloons fly over the garden one glorious shining day.
Also, Strawberry Days, Moab Folk Festival, Shakespeare Festival, St. George Art Festival, Bryce Canyon Winter Festival, and the Sheep… herding down Main Street. Coming up real soon, Saturday, October 25th, 2025, in Cedar City.
(Not affiliated with these festival sites, but you can tell them LaNeedA Travel sent ya!)
Well the point of this article was to give more info about why I live in Utah!
The gardening skills would have been a given no matter where I lived…
Looking forward to sharing more LaNeedA Travel updates as we get ready for the winter season. Holiday travel is best booked now, well before people start decorating. Next up is the Hollow’s Eve or Samhain, or Halloween!
