Hi Thanks for joining me on my
home website.This is where I post articles, pictures and run a free gardening newsletter to answer reader questions. There is a growing number of articles up here and I hope you find something of interest.
And while the old farm has been sold and the thousands of plants moved, the thought about coming down “where you ought to be” in the “valley of love and delight” still rings through my head. As it turns out, the old farm wasn’t just a place, it is a thought and a dream that I carry with me wherever I go and whatever I do.
What's here?
