    Hi everyone, I'm from SC, and I love gardening. For the past 3 years I've been growing flowers and plants of all varieties and I always have a vegetable garden planted in the spring. Hubby and I are empty nesters, kids are all married and have kids of their own so I have lots of time to garden now. We live out in the country with lots of room for planting. Hope to get to know you all and share some gardening fun and experiences.

    Hi Southern Bell,
    I think you found a keeper here at Garden Stew. I wonder if they will let me post my bean hut? After I learn the ropes I will try. I did see where the site has a section to do pictures. I think I will for sure like the people here.

    Hope they like Green Beans. I already know they love flowers so I think the three of us will fit right in.

    Find the Welcome to Gardenstew and look under the gardenstew starter pack. It tells you all you need to know to post pictures and other things on the site. We love pictures. Lots of pictures. Welcome to the "Stew" Dooley

    Thanks Dooley,
    I forgot to tell you folks that I am from Western North Carolina and have Big Greasy bean Patch that is really giving me a work out. I tried to get Southern Bell to come help me pick them but since We found four snakes in I do not think she will come.LOL Will post a few pictures of it a bit later.

    Hope you are having a wonderful evening
    Greasy Bean

    Thanks everyone for the friendly welcome and so glad to see Greasy Bean, my NC friend here too. Hoping another of my NC friends joins us soon. I've looked around the forums a little and I'd say I've found a great bunch of gardening people here and I'm really going to enjoy it. Thanks for having me y'all.

    Snakes, we have snakes, too. But, when we wanted some for our summer reading program, none were to be found. They were hiding from the rain I guess. As soon as we weren't looking for them anymore, out they came. We only had one rattlesnake in the yard this summer. I hope that's all we get. Only one tarantula in the house so far. Chance keeps looking for more though. She kind of liked it, I think. Dooley
