Since returning to her childhood home on Vancouver Island, Canada, Pamela Anderson has offered us endless inspiration with her natural, intuitive approach to homemaking. Now the actress has formalized her leadership by sharing the seven simple rules that guide her. They are ideal for gardening and living.
Pamela collaborated with her skincare brand Sonsie to produce a beautiful, uplifting video sharing her top gardening ideas. Each is more inspiring and philosophical than the last, but has a practical approach that you can easily apply to your planting this fall.
Her rules have the same magical quality, based on the connection between gardening and well-being and emphasizing nutrition and patience, two of the most important skills for becoming a master gardener.
Whether you're starting a garden from scratch or have several years of planting under your belt, they offer ideas that you can at least maintain. To put it in Pamela's words, here's how to garden.

- “Rule number four: Always look beneath the surface.” That’s where the real work happens.”
