I’m an organic urban gardener living less than two miles from downtown Austin, Texas. Gardening here is both rewarding and weird because of our totally wacky weather but I enjoy the challenge. After mostly container gardening for a few years due to our poor clay soil, this year I went Square Foot method and raised three beds, with more to come: I’m addicted now! I never realized how crucial good dirt is to successful gardening. Seems like a ‘duh!’ now!
I’m hoping to find other local gardeners that want to swap seeds, plants, and knowledge. Gardening fulfills me in a way no other hobby can!
