Hi folks.
How I got here is, I used to be a member at DG a few years ago, and participated in a couple of the regional forums there, learned a huge amount about gardening, and dropped my membership at one point when my life sort of took me elsewhere. I've moved around some, and gardened in several climates in the US. Recently I haven't been able to do a lot of gardening, but now I'm in Virginia, I'm in a place where my skills are welcome. Which is super.
However, I don't have experienced or knowledgeable other gardeners around to learn from and chat with and I need that! So I went back to DG, checked out the MA forum right as this forum here at ATP was being set up. (I think! I may not have followed the timing just right...)
I've gardened in high desert and in the Pacific Northwest and earlier in the Monterey Peninsula area of CA. Did a little in North Carolina but not a lot -- and now I am in a somewhat different place and learning what of my experience applies here and what doesn't.
This summer is my first here. I'm really just getting started. So, I hope to be active here as time permits and thank you all in advance for the info and friendship exchange!
