So, maybe I am a bit spoiled when it comes to fresh fruit and produce. One thing is for sure, I am picky when it comes to produce. This, has led me to being very adamant about knowing where my food comes from and my newest rant on board A Growing Garden. Included below, is a brief excerpt... Take a moment, check it out and feel free to share your opinions on my thoughts around "Imported apples..."

Planning, planting, creating your 2011 garden landscapes
Yes, I know, the holidays are barely over and here I go talking about spring, gardens, landscaping and planting vegetables. I will admit, I am very much looking forward to the warmth and sunny weather of summer, as I usually do this time of the year. This yearning led me to spending some time this holiday break working on a collection of garden and landscape articles. Feel free to browse through the following links!
~How to choose which vegetables to grow in your garden
~How to grow vegetables in a cold climate
~Tips to consider when adding groundcovers to your landscape
~Landscaping ideas: Grass-free designs
~Using herbs as landscaping borders
Hopefully some of the provided gardening information and tips will help in the planning, planting and creation of your 2011 landscape, garden or outdoor living space.
The best of wishes for 2011.
