"Thus, if I make a garden, "I need not print a line, nor
conjure with the painter's tools to prove myself an
artist...Whilst in other spheres of labor the greater part
of our life's toil and moil will of a surety end, as the
wise man predicted, in vanity and vexation of spirit, here
is instant physical refreshment in the work the garden
entails, and, in the end, our labor will be crowned with
flowers." For many years I've gardened Organicly, growing Vegetables, Flowers, and Herbs. I'd like to thank my Mother, for all her knowledge, given so freely (and for all the starts of plants she's given).Thanks Mom!!! Thanks also to the people at Organic Gardening Magazine and Rodale Press (Organic Gardening Books) for much of the info I've learned regarding the safe and natural way to garden. I highly recommend this Magazine and Rodale Press. In the fall, winter and spring I use a 12' by 24' solar and woodburner heated greenhouse to start seedlings, grow vegetables and to over winter many of the plants that I use to decorate my yard and deck with in the summer. I have corresponded and traded seed and information with gardeners from all over the U.S. and some in foriegn countries. In doing so I gained access to many difficult to find and unusual plants and met some very nice people. On this area of my site you will find info and also links that I have found interesting and useful and I really hope you do to!
