We have 3 empty garden frames waiting for me to figure out how much of "Mel's Mix" to procure--and where to find it! :)<BR/><BR/>OH, and we have a "vintage" 1975 camper, too. I should take some glam-king photos of us--a study in irony. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32734443.post-44894513431426673662009-03-13T12:43:00.000-05:002009-03-13T12:43:00.000-05:00Fairlight, Just happened over here today from Mich...Fairlight, Just happened over here today from Michelle's blog and was so excited to read your post! The rewards of even a small garden are so amazing. Gardening has been such a big part of my life for over 30 years now....I can't imagine not doing it. <BR/>Don't forget to squeeze in a few flowers to encourage pollination, pest protection and many other benefits for your veggies. A good read is "Great Garden Companions" by Sally Jean Cunningham.Conniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15539232387597508849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32734443.post-30100681962292868192009-03-11T12:28:00.000-05:002009-03-11T12:28:00.000-05:00You and Mike never cease to amaze me.

You are inspiring...maybe a container garden would be more manageable..do you recommend any books on getting started when you know practically nothing?Cottage Mommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06371107327269866980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32734443.post-14515703006803528182009-03-10T11:03:00.000-05:002009-03-10T11:03:00.000-05:00How wonderful!

It is very cool to see where it has gone to and where it looks like it is going. :)<BR/>I am SO very excited for you! I loved gardening last year, and plan to have an even better garden this year.<BR/>I must encourage you to have ALOT of sugar snap peas! Our kids (Pete too!) would go out and snatch them up constantly. Little Beau was one and a half and he was out there alllllll the time snatching anything he thought looked tasty, cucumber, carrots, cilantro, and sugar snaps.<BR/>Soooo looking forward to your pictures!<BR/>Loves to you!<BR/>Minta<BR/>P.S. The pictures in this post were pretty darn cute too!<BR/>Oh and Costco has a Photo Shop coupon for 30 dollars off! YAY!Amintahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12042137215109612995noreply@blogger.com
