I joined Gardenweb in the Winter of 2001 as I was planning our garden. The following is an excerpt from my gardenweb member page:
2001
“I’ve recently purchased a house and I’m looking forward to starting my garden next year. I plan to landscape the backyard so that it will have several areas of floral plants, a vegetable garden, and a pond surrounded by a rock garden.
I’m not new to gardening- but new to creating my own garden. When I was a child my parents always had a nice vegetable garden, flowering trees, and flower beds that needed tending. We also had two very large vegetable gardens at our cottage …. so yes I have quite a bit of past experience weeding and growing vegetables in particular. ”
Well, the garden that I was dreamily planning was started in the spring of 2001 and has grown from there. Read the next post for another excerpt from my gardenweb members page regarding the progress of our garden.
