 Gardening since 2005
|
I was born with a natural green thumb. My grandfather was a great gardener and so was his father. All my adult life I enjoyed taking care of my house plants and watching them grow. Then in 2006, I bought a house and moved on to vegetable gardening. I have been in love since! Gardening for me is a huge stress reliever!
