I am new to gardening and gardenstew.com I first posted in the Welcome section with a question before I realized this was to introduce new members, not problems... :-D I am a happily married mother of four with one grandson. This year is my 2nd year gardening. I started with one raised bed and have increased the size to two raised beds (4 sections total) and 6 containers. I am excited to join this community and learn more about this hobby that has taken over my life. I find myself up in the wee hours of the morning searching for anything new that might have sprouted and wandering late at night turning leaves to battle slugs and other pests feasting on the fruits of my labor! I can't wait to read all the stories and posts! Happy Gardening, Mrs. Bennefield

Hi Mrs. B and a warm welcome to GardenStew! Looks like you've caught the gardening bug big time! You're in great company here
And another welcome from Texas--central Texas this time. We all here have the gardening itch, BAD! You'll find lots of help, encouragement, and a few laughs here.
mrs_bennefield, A big welcome from Pa. You are going to love Gardenstew. We are good here and happy and silly....and we love each other, but most of all we all love to garden.
Mrs. B sending you a big welcome from a Wisconsin Stewbie. This is a great online community with folks from all over the world. Hope you post pic's of your little corner of it. We love seeing pictures.
