Comments (18)Hi! I'm not far. I live in downtown West Palm Beach. Because I'm downtown, my lot is really tiny but I do have some plants to share. I know what you mean about wanting to share gardening adventures. My husband believes if it is a plant it should be cut, hard. I swear I can hear the screams. I'm not much of a gardener, but I have a lot of passion and I love all the great gardens posted on this site. Let me know if you would like anything I have. Check out my profile page under my trades.

Comments (15)Sue, the Etap hotel is a few steps below a motel 6...quite a few steps in fact. LOL! The rooms were tiny, which were expected but the floor was really grungy and the toilet/shower area were a one piece porta potty plastic unit that had been put into a corner of the room. It was very small and the floor area by the toilet got soaked when you showered. The shower stall area was barely big enough to turn around in. Now I wish I had taken a picture! Patti, I think the house I used to live in was torn down and a new one put in it's place, there were a lot of new homes there. The town was very small, just one street with one tiny restaurant and a coffin maker. That was it...not even a post office. Stacy, yeah, I think I should've learned after our trip out west. Some of it was fun but for the most part they weren't interested in a lot of it. I've downloaded my pictures and will start posting them. Wish I had taken more videos, they are pretty funny because they are so BAD! LOL!...See MoreHey Fellow NE Gardeners
Comments (4)Welcome, Bea! I had to look up your location but I'm a little bit familiar with the Sandwich/Tamworth area west of you. Recently we went on a great small farm tour in Tamworth that was put on by the OLLI program (education for 55 and older). I asked about garden tours because I went on one several years ago in the Tamworth/Sandwich area. The farmer told me to check with the Bear Camp Garden Club. What I learned on that garden tour was that there are 22 fewer growing days than I have near Concord NH. Last night there were 12 deer in the field south of us. I had trouble with deer the first summer but started using deer repellant. That seems to have worked. That hayfield might be a lot tastier. Rodents were horrible last year, however, eating a lot of garden veggies. Friends love using a salad table which is something I might consider if I were pregnant! Hope those young guys give you some help with stoop labor. I am much older so hope gym squats are going to make gardening easier for me this summer. I've had some good luck keeping a low tunnel over a veggie bed until things are well along (good for zucchini) and then using it late in the season to protect a late planting of bush beans from an early light frost that we get around Sept 18 (but then have a couple of weeks of warm weather). It is covered with Agribon that originally came from Johnnies....See MoreBrendan Krawiec
