Hey from Anette

Hi,

I've just joined this interesting forum.

I've been an active spare time gardener from quite a few years. I've grown both vegetables, fruits, berries, flower etc.

I really love to follow and observe all the fascinating processes in the garden. I like to sow the seeds. I love to see how the crops grow. And it feels wonderful when I harvest them.

But I also like the exercise and the relaxation I get there, right outside in my garden. I've gone to fitness centers, but nothing beats the garden, I think So, as you can imagine, I spend quite a lot of time in my own garden.

Privately, I'm a wife and mother with three children.

Best,
Anette

 

Thank you very much, Eileen

Hi Eileen,

Hi KK Ng,

Thank you very much! Appreciate that. Even though it's far away, it's my impression that Malaysia is a beautiful place with a lot of wonderful gardens.

Yes, you can really get a lot of exercise in your garden - especially when you dig into the soil or weed. Besides, in my family we use a lawn mover without an engine. We have to push it all the way through our big lawn. We used to have a motorized lawn mover, but it made a terrible noise and smoke, and it was not too friendly to the environment. So, now my family and I get a lot of extra exercise once a week when we cut our grass. But we really enjoy it :-D

But actually I still jog and cycle. So you know, it all adds up.

Best,
Anette

 

Hello wannab3gardener,

Thank you so much! :-D

I'll try to post some pics from my garden. I have a lot, but you know, as a busy mother there's always so much to do. I'll try to see if my husband can help me.

Warmly,
Anette
