    hey everyone!

    so i don't know if weather has motivated me or what, but i find myself paging through gardening idea magazines more and more. i really, really, would like to build a greenhouse on my property and grow tomatoes and basil (if only i could grow mozzarella, too!)

    i'd also like to put in some bright perennials near my gazebo, but i'm sort of clueless and trying this "green thumb" thing out for the first time.

    so - that's my story! expect some (dumb) questions from me! I'm a quick learner...but I've got a long way to go... :-D

    Hi PennsylvaniaFarmer, welcome to the Stew from north Texas.. where summer is hanging on and making me really ticked off. :scheming:

    Anyway, ask away...lots of good and helpful answers.

    And we really like pictures of gardens, pets, local scenery...and pictures of snow appear to be a biggie right now. :stew2:

    Another one from Michigan here. I'm the mother of Redrose. welcome to the Stew.
    We love pictures as you work along your gardening-though some of us are in snowy and very cold weather right now. I have a small greenhouse I use for my own delight. You'll be able to find alot of information here.

    everyone's so nice!

    i'll just have to say - i've never received such a tremendously warm welcome on any online message board! so kudos to you all for your hospitality.

    to the other pennsylvanian who asked "where from?" that would be Riggles Gap, PA, outside of altoona.

    anyway - thanks again for the warm welcome!

    Hi Pa farmer! well maybe you can't grow mozzarella, but on a tomato-basil salad, ya can't beat home-grown goats milk cheese all crumbled up, and goats are pretty easy to grow, lol!
