Live Long and Plant…
May 19, 2011
First off, sorry for the long absence! But I finally feel like now I am something to share!
So, I recently discovered that I did not inherit my mother’s black thumb (thank god!) and am able to not only grow plants but also keep them alive! And, living in Chicago, I realized that maybe my shady back porch isn’t the best place to try and grow my own veggies.
I’ve been walking around and discovering lots of places to start an urban garden and I am sure that there are so many other people like me who did not get a plot at any of the open gardens. So my question is- to anyone out there in the same debacle- anyone interested in starting an urban garden? I am so interested and not sure of the next steps and would love advice from anyone!
Basically any kind of gardening advice works too! I just finished my first twitter chat #seedchat and it was so inspiring! Drop me a line with any kind of tips/advice/anything! Dress ideas or recipes or sci-fi shows to watch are all welcome, too!
Looking forward to starting this!
