About Carole West

Carole West is the Author of Quail Getting Started and Startle Garden.

She began writing in 2014 on her blog, Garden Up Green. The desire was to communicate natural gardening techniques she learned from her grandmother and expand on those methods.

She is a believer in using methods proven to work for generations while keeping things simple and attractive.
.
The first being to implement a gardening system using smaller and taller raised beds. These beds are easy to maintain, great for year-round gardening and simply beautiful.

During that time she also started raising quail on her farm and is always busy making DIY projects for the garden.

With so many skillsets and a positive attitude she educates, energizes and entertains the reader from the heart.

Carole has been published in several national magazines, like Grit, Capper's Farmer, Hobby Farms and Countryside to name a few. She has also led workshops for Texas Home and Garden and has helped thousands raise quail and garden.

Since then a simplified life was in order and she recently closed Garden Up Green to focus on book writing.

Carole's next quail book is scheduled to publish June 2021.
