CEO, AUTHOR, CREATOR

Meet Garden Marcus

“The most important thing I have learned from gardening is that we can't make anything grow, but we can foster environments where things want to grow.”

About Me

I am Marcus Bridgewater: CEO, creator, and influencer.

​In December of 2019, I began sharing videos online at the suggestion of a former mentee of mine. He felt that my message of kindness, patience, and positivity would be well received by the internet, and thus I began my journey as a content creator.

Since then, my first book has come out and I have been fortunate to have my work featured in a variety of press including Vogue, Dwell, The Drew Barrymore Show, The Los Angeles Times, and the New York Times.

Outside of the garden, I am a speaker & educator through my company Choice Forward, and I am available to work with your organization. I also have an online school for personal growth & development that offers on-demand classes, live workshops, and virtual coaching – check out the How to Grow School today!
