Can't wait until it is time to plant broccoli and spinach again.

It is great to see another Florida gardener here. We do have soem unique challenges with our weather and insects. I have so much more luck with fall and winter gardens.

Hi Stephanie. Thanks for the friends request. I think your garden area is very interesting. For some reason it makes me think of music. Like it's a carefully arranged orchestra, ready to perform - bows sitting on strings waiting for the signal to draw a note. Does that sound too weird? I hope not. I like what I see in your garden.

Hi Stephanie,
I like your beds, I had boardless plots this year. I am thinking about putting in rock border next spring.

Hi..Stephanie;

Thanks for your greetings. Yes, My heart is with organic farming for Thailand.

But I do not know how to start...

Hi Stephanie
I have long beds like you. I use moveable stepover boards to cross over the beds at midpoint and save time walking right around the beds. Most of my stepover boards are made from old scaffolding planks.

I pay £50 pounds a year approximately for my allotment. This amount has doubled in the last few years as their popularity has increased. Mine is 300 square yards, although there are smaller ones. The trend nowadays is to split them in two, so they...

Then go back and highlight the link text.

Then hit the hyperlink button...a pictogram of a chain link.
