Well, I just realized that I deleted everything I had written here to update it and then forgot all about it …. oops.

I grow all kind of things in my gardens but vegetables are always the first thing I look at when shopping for new plants/seeds.

I’m particulary interested in heirlooms, tomatoes, seed saving, polyculture (thanks to puu) tulips and peonies.

I’m a foodie/oenophile (ok, wine geek) with a wonderful husband, who happily does all the heavy lifting and digging in the garden, with some wonderful kids to assist.
