I’m a stay @ home mom of 3 children, I knit, garden and enjoy my mommy circle of friends. I grew up as an “outside girl,” not much into girly things, in Alabama and my family always gardened. Both grandfathers had HUGE gardens, and my parents always had something growing somewhere. Tomatoes and cucumbers were a given.

I live in Pennsylvania now and the growing season is much shorter than what I knew as a child… but certainly doable. It’s been fun to get my hands back in the dirt this summer with my square foot garden after not gardening for about 10 years. We live in town and sfg is perfect for our lives. And high yield… what a surprise!
