I started gardening about 12 years ago when my son was 2 years old. He loved being outside and wanted to be out there all day long. So we just started digging (his favorite part). Next thing you know I have what I would call 14 small gardens. And I'm totally addicted to gardening, dirt, compost, and flowers!
