Hello! I am from Central Florida. I like to grow tomatos and all sorts of peppers. I like to have a lot of different foilage all over the back and front porch as well as in the yard. I grow aloe and like to make creams and aloe juice. :-D

Welcome aboard from north florida! There is a lot of useful information here that you will find and enjoy.
Hey everyone!! Thank you VERY much for the warm welcome, it is greatly appreciated!! I have not sold the Aloe cream before, I mainly just give it to friends and use it for personal uses. It is amazing for sunburns! One time I had a sunburn so bad I looked like a lobster (I am very fair skinned) and I used my cream and I did not blister, nor did I peel and within a few days the burn was gone, it was amazing! (I have been burnt many times in the past being in Florida so I had some not so fond memories of previous burns!) In the cream I use cocoa butter, vitamin E, lanolin and of course aloe juice. For the aloe juice I don't do much of anything but strain it and give it to the hubby, helps with his intestinal problems and it beats buying medications over the counter or commercial aloe to make him feel better! Here is one of my aloes, starting to sprout a "thingy" as I call it...LOL Thanks again for the welcome, I can already see there is plenty to keep me busy here reading!!!
