I love growing tomatoes and peppers (and most everything else) from seed.
I’ve had terrible luck with brassicas, carrots, and onions.

This year I completed the WSU Master Gardener training to get better at growing vegetables, and to find opportunities to volunteer where I can spread my love of gardening to the community. I just started working with the Bellevue Demonstration Garden and the Ronald McDonald House gardens near Children’s Hospital.

Right now, I need gardening buddies because none of my friends are into gardening, and neither is my special someone (although he is very supportive of it).
